Our 16-year-old Golden Retriever has been on Rimadyl and Tramadol for years. A recent blood test showed very high levels of liver enzymes, prompting our vet to advise stopping Rimadyl. Now, he's in obvious pain, showing signs like panting, slow movement, and licking joints. He recently started Adequan shots and was moving better, but now he's regressed. He's scheduled for acupuncture. Are we doing all we can to manage his pain and condition?

My dog has suddenly started licking everything, including the floor, material, and even licking air. Is it something I should worry about? Could it be related to teeth or digestive problems?

My 18 lb German Shorthaired Pointer swallowed something unknown, possibly a rock, after I tried to remove it from her mouth. I gave her a teaspoon of salt to induce vomiting, but she didn't vomit and is now acting normally. Should I be concerned, and what should I do next?

My dog just experienced a head shaking episode that lasted several minutes and only stopped when he laid down. It doesn't resemble typical seizures I've seen online. What could this be, and what should I do since it's Sunday and I can't find a veterinarian?
