I have a 2-year-old Blue Heeler named Lucky who has been scratching excessively for several months, causing raw spots. I've been using a cone to prevent him from scratching but don't like keeping it on all the time. Additionally, Lucky is not eating well and seems underweight. What can I do to address these issues without incurring a vet bill?

My rescue dog, Buttercup, who is about four years old, has been eating grass and vomiting, which consists of bile and grass. She was on Hills Science Diet food when I got her three months ago, but her appetite has decreased since then. She also frequently smells and licks everything and everyone. What could be causing this and what should I do?
