My dog, Chubacca, is in pain due to a testicle that has not dropped. He is a 9-year-old Brussels Griffon weighing about 5 lbs, and he has not seen a vet in many years. He is not on any medications, but he keeps kicking his back legs and whining. What should be done?

My 5-year-old dog, Barley, has been experiencing discomfort in her back end, especially after overrunning, which has worsened to the point where she can hardly walk. The vet previously prescribed a half pill for two days, which helped, but now the issue has returned. Is it safe to give her Advil, and what other steps can be taken to alleviate her discomfort until a vet appointment can be made?

My dog, Brodie, a 2-year-old boxer, has a rapidly growing pink spot on his lip. I noticed it about a month ago as a very small pin prick. He is not licking or rubbing the area, and he is otherwise healthy. What could this spot be, and what should I do about it?

My 10-year-old husky mix has been sluggish, keeps his head low, doesn't walk far before lying down, and sometimes yelps when touched or for no reason. He has also vomited a few times in the past couple of days. What could be wrong with him, and what can I do to help him until I can take him to the vet?

My 12-year-old Pug, Dobby, has been trembling strongly for 30 minutes. She is also breathing very quickly and feels warm. She had her nails ground at Petco earlier today and started feeling ill after I bought a new dog bed. What could be causing this and how can I make her more comfortable?
