My dog, Jake, a 4-year-old short-haired Chihuahua, is acting like he's trying not to vomit, eating grass, peeing a lot, having difficulty pooping, and licking his front paws. He hasn't vomited, but he seems to be fighting the urge. What could be wrong and what should I do?

My 13-year-old black Pomeranian, Dasher, has experienced a sudden loss in weight, diarrhea, and low energy despite being treated twice for a UTI. He is still eating and drinking water, pees small amounts several times a day, and was recently treated for worms. The vet did a urinalysis but found no signs of diabetes or cancer, and did not perform an X-ray or blood work. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do next?

My Irish Wolfhound, Shandy, has a pinkish/red skin tag-like abnormality on her side. She is acting normal, eating and drinking normally, but this skin tag is new and I'm unsure if I should bring her to the vet. It does not look infected. What should I do?

We just got a 9-week-old Maltipoo puppy named Fluffy. We switched her to a higher protein food too quickly, and now her stools are very frequent and jelly-like. What could be causing this and what steps should we take to address it?

My 16-year-old yellow lab, Lola, has not been mobile for months due to degenerative myelopathy and colitis. She has a swollen anus with discharge of liquid stool and seems to be in discomfort. She is currently on Flagyl and Gabapatin. What can we do to ease her swelling and pain, and should we change her diet or visit the vet?
