My chicken is limping. She just started limping today, and there is no visible trauma. She was fine last night and is still eating, drinking, and moving around the yard. I checked her legs and thighs for wounds but found none. What could be causing her limp, and what should I do to help her?

The limp in your chicken is likely due to a soft tissue sprain or strain, possibly from overexertion...

My 7-year-old dachshund, who weighs 20 lbs, has been diagnosed with disc disease and is on prednisone. Since last night, he has had diarrhea. He has not eaten anything unusual and has been unable to use his back legs and has trouble using the bathroom. What should I do until I can see his primary vet in the morning?

My dogs, Brody (5 years, 16 lbs) and Moon Pie (11 years, 27 lbs), got into a small bag of large purple grapes. Approximately 5-10 grapes are missing, and it has been about 2 hours since they ate them. Both are acting normal. What should I look for in terms of toxicity and what should I do to ensure their safety?

My dog, Milan, has had diarrhea since yesterday after eating pork tenderloin from the garbage. She is mostly on a kibble diet and has vomited several times over the past 24 hours. She has decreased energy and weighs between seven and eight pounds. What should I do to help her feel better?

My 3-month-old puppy, Beaux, is having trouble walking on his back legs, mostly his right leg, and has a runny nose. He injured his right leg about a month ago and seemed to recover quickly, but now he's limping again and not using the leg. What could be causing this and what should I do?
