My 10-year-old ex-racing greyhound, Tess, has had diarrhea since Saturday night. The stools were initially watery, now they are yellow mush with mucus. There have been no major dietary changes, and the onset was sudden. She visited kennels where ex-racers are kept, but none of them are sick. How should I proceed?

We have a 14-year-old standard poodle named Finnley. She has been experiencing excessive sneezing, the development of cysts (one of which exploded), an open wound on her tail that won't heal, strange breathing, stiffness when laying down, and discharge from her eyes. The vet suspects a tumor in her nasal cavity but does not recommend extensive tests due to her age. What can be done to keep her comfortable without subjecting her to numerous tests?

My male Boxer, Zorro, was neutered on Wednesday. The incision looks okay, but his scrotum appears enlarged and there is a small drop of light-colored blood seeping from between the stitches. He wants to run around in circles and is drinking but not peeing. What should I do?
