My 9-year-old Schnauzer/Cocker Spaniel mix, Sadie, has been tucking her tail, having trouble climbing stairs and jumping, and her back legs and thighs are shaking. She still eats and drinks but less than usual. What could be the problem?

My dog has been labored breathing since 3 am. The dog is a 13-year-old Schnauzer/Poodle mix named Lily. She has not been coughing and is not open-mouth breathing, but has been breathing heavily and occasionally gagging after jumping on or off the couch. The last vet visit was in April for her shots. What could be causing this labored breathing and what should I do?

My dog, Roxy, was prescribed Rimadyl, Clavamox 375 mg, Gabapentin, and a probiotic for an abscess. However, after starting the medication, her left side legs became swollen, and she started drinking water excessively. The swelling hasn't improved despite continuing the medication as advised by the vet. What should I do?

My dog was diagnosed with cherry eye by his Brazilian vet, who recommended Ciprofloxacin eye drops. However, I can't purchase these drops in the US. What alternative treatments are available, and should I proceed with surgery or continue monitoring the condition?

My dog ate a 100 mg edible around 6:00 PM, she is 45 pounds and is not showing any symptoms of effects except elevated breathing and confusion. I have no funds but will take her to the vet if necessary. What should I do?

My dog has a swollen mouth/side of face and keeps shaking her head and trying to rub her face. I gave her some Benadryl an hour ago assuming it was a bite or sting but she hasn’t improved. She is quite agitated and panting. What should I do?
