My 8-lb papillon ate 5 echinacea and goldenseal capsules. Is that toxic for her?

My dog, a Golden Retriever named Abby, is due any day now. Her temperature has dropped from 37.8°C to 37.1°C, she hasn't been eating much for the last few days, and she's been sleeping a lot. She has a white slimy discharge and is nesting, but not intensely. Is this normal behavior for a large breed during labor, and what should I do if she doesn't show signs of labor soon?

My almost 15-year-old, 65 lb female Samoyed has always had weakness in her rear left leg, diagnosed as psoriatic arthritis. She was prescribed Previcox, which she tolerated well but recently showed more weakness and slipping on non-carpeted floors. She was also given Tramadol for pain, but this seemed to worsen her weakness. Should I stop the Tramadol to see if her weakness improves, and what other treatments or medications could help manage her condition?

I have a 93 lbs labradoodle named Dew with chronic diarrhea for 5 years. We have tried various treatments including eastern medicine, antibiotics, herbs, diet changes, and different types of food, but nothing seems to help. What other possibilities can I explore to resolve this issue?

I have 2 dogs who have lived together for the past 4 years. All of a sudden, they are attacking each other. One dog gets extremely anxious and begins to pant, while the other puts her ears back, so I immediately separate them. I tried a sedative to calm them down after one of their episodes, but this is only a short-term fix. Do you have any suggestions? Would a dog behaviorist have anything to offer in this type of situation? I really don't want to have to get rid of either dog. Any help would be appreciated.
