My dog's stomach is making strange noises. I've just noticed it now. There are no changes in her stool, and she is 4 months old. What could be the possible reasons for her stomach noises, and should I be worried?

My relative's 14-year-old Bichon named Piggy has quick and heavy breathing, is unable to walk and eat, has wheezing but no sneezing or nasal drainage, and her gum color is a whitish pink. She has a rapid respiratory rate of about 116 breaths per minute and sometimes vomits or has diarrhea with not solid poop. What could be causing these symptoms and what immediate actions should be taken?

My dog has spots on his belly and under his legs. I just noticed them and he is very anxious because we just moved. What could these spots be and what should I do?

I have a rescue puppy that is about 6 months old and has been having issues with roundworms despite treatment. She is also having trouble eating and drinking, often getting sick when she does. Her nose is cold and dry, her eyes are goopy, and she spends a lot of time sleeping, though she is still playful. I am concerned that she is not eating or drinking enough. How can I address these issues?
