My dog has been obsessively licking his front paw, causing inflammation and a loss of fur. I applied Sulfodene ointment to soothe the area, but now he is pacing and circling. What should I do?

My Yorkie puppy, Walker, fell off the couch and is crying and shaking, but walking fine. How do I know if he needs to go to the vet?

I have a 6.5-month-old Bouvier female. She is scheduled for spaying next week. Should she get the gastropexy also? Some vets say to wait until the dog is a year old for gastropexy.

Our 14-year-old dog, Sammy, was diagnosed with Cushings, which unmasked significant pain. He is not using his left paw, has strained back hips, and is unable to walk much or jump down from furniture without assistance. He has been constantly whimpering for the past day. We've tried tramadol and Rimadyl for pain, but they haven't helped. We are considering stopping the Cushings treatment and focusing on pain management. Is it possible that allowing cortisol levels to rise again could improve his pain management? Are there other pain management options we should consider?

We picked up our Border Collie, Jewel, from the kennel yesterday and she acts like she's been hurt. She doesn't seem to recognize us and is having trouble trusting us. What should we do to help her?
