I have a Chow/Shepherd mix on a 1000 calorie/day diet but she continues to gain weight. She has a clean thyroid profile and is otherwise healthy. She has a bum (R) hip, so she doesn't get much exercise. What could be causing the weight gain and what can I do to help her lose weight?

My female Maltese has been sneezing, snorting, and wheezing for the past few days. She is eating and drinking normally but not as much water as usual. She still plays but not as much as she usually does. She has been around other dogs recently. Is there something I can do for her in the meantime?

My 12-year-old Dalmatian drinks a large amount of water. She is in good physical shape, gets plenty of exercise, and eats well. I have occasionally noticed a touch of blood in her stool. What could be the cause of her increased water intake and the blood in her stool?

My 10-year-old Sheltie is occasionally slipping with her rear legs, especially on wood and laminate floors when she rushes. She has no difficulty with stairs or jumping and no known pre-existing medical conditions. This issue started two days after changing her food from Blue to Orijen. Could the diet change be related to her slipping?
