My dog, Stevie, has had random diarrhea since this morning, with stools becoming more runny over time. She won't eat and seems the same in terms of energy. She had a tapeworm a month ago and was treated, but I'm concerned it might be related or if she ate something harmful. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 7-year-old Border Collie, Sugah, is making a sound like something is in her throat and pushing down on her front legs. Occasionally, clear to white fluid comes out of her mouth. She is breathing normally, eating, drinking, and has normal bowel movements. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her?

My dog, Foxie, is pregnant and having a hard time delivering. She has been in labor for about 24 hours, and it seems like her first litter. She is still eating and drinking, but the nearest vet that is open is 90 miles away. Should I take her for a walk, and what should I do in this situation?

My dog, Brooklyn, has peeling dry skin and a new flat black spot on her stomach after a flea infestation. We've tried a medicated shampoo that helps temporarily, but I'm unsure if this is due to winter or something more serious. Should I be concerned, and what should I do next?
