My dog, Baron, a Golden Shepherd aged 8, was very agitated, jumped in bed with me at 2 am, and couldn't get comfortable. Earlier, he had some swelling around his snout, like an allergic reaction, and has been rolling on his back in the yard. He was never licking at the swelling, and there are no other obvious symptoms. What could be causing his discomfort and agitation?

My 15-year-old dog, Flower, has an open sore on her lower back that has been present for about a month. We've been applying polysporin to it, but it keeps reopening. She also takes medication for megaesophagus occasionally. What should we do about the sore, and is surgery a viable option for an older dog?

My pet, a 2.5-year-old Shepherd named Tyson, has been hesitant to eat regular food like egg mixed in rice and milk for the past 3 days. He only eats non-regular food. He doesn't drink much water and hasn't seen a vet in over a year. What could be causing this and what should I do?
