My 6.5-year-old male Chihuahua named Chico has been shivering after bowel movements for about a week, not every day. He walks cautiously and feels better in the afternoon. Chico had a liver shunt operation at 1.5 years old and had Giardia last week, which is now under control. What could be causing the shivering, and what should I do?

My dog, Koba, a 7-year-old Border Collie, has not moved his tail much, walks hunched and on his toes, and has had limited bowel movements since 6pm on Saturday, the 3rd. He is not eating or drinking much, and there is an enlarged area above his tail with a bad odor. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to help him?

My dog, Jepp, a 5-year-old Lab/Rot mix weighing 130 lbs, has been excessively eating grass, panting, wanting to go out, and has difficulty laying down. He has been active, walking around, licking surfaces, and has vomited twice after eating grass. It's possible he picked up something unusual on the porch, and he has been grass eating off and on for a few days. He also seems to have seasonal allergies. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, Missy, has a deep cut between her toes on her front paw. I cleaned it and covered it with a bandage and neosporin. What over-the-counter medicine can I use for potential infection, and should I send photos of the wound for further assessment?
