I have a 13-year-old mixed breed female dog with severe osteoarthritis and possible cancer in the hip. She is currently on Tramadol, gabapentin, and meloxicam, but has difficulty walking and recently fell off the bed. We are considering a hip brace to support her and prevent her legs from going out from underneath her. Which hip brace would you recommend, and can you review her X-rays for a second opinion on her condition?

My dog, Maggie, a 5-year-old Shih Tzu terrier mix, ate a large bully stick and has been exhibiting symptoms such as panting, discomfort, and difficulty lying down. She was taken to the vet, who found her full of gas but no obstruction. She was given omeprazole and simethicone, but she refuses to eat and has diarrhea with straining. What should I do?
