My beagle/Bassett cross, Jewels, is 14 years old and has been experiencing difficulty getting down stairs, hip curvature, glassy eyes with the start of cataracts, a lack of appetite, and constant whining and groaning, even when laying still. She was rescued from a neglectful/abusive owner and has been in pain for about two weeks. What could be causing her symptoms and what can I do to help her, especially given my financial constraints?

My dog, Daisy, a 6-year-old Westie weighing about 14 pounds, has had diarrhea for 2 days and just threw up, which contained a little bit of food. She has been eating plain chicken breast and seems a bit more tired but still plays and runs around. What could be causing this and what steps should I take to help her?

My son's dog, Izzy, who is 12 years old, has been coughing hard every now and then for about a couple of hours. It seems like she's trying to bring something out of her throat. The cough is loud. What could be causing this and what should we do?

I have a 2-year-old, unaltered male husky/wolf/micro pitbull mix named Shiloh with severe separation anxiety. He stares at the door all day when I'm gone, even when my son-in-law is home with him. If we're all gone, he howls. My first grandbaby is due next month, and I will be traveling for two weeks in April. Last year, a week-long trip was very hard on him. How can I help him cope with his anxiety without spending a lot of money?
