My dog, Kimber, a 7-year-old Doberman Pinscher, is limping on her back leg. She was playing in the backyard an hour ago, and I checked her legs and feet but found no stickers or injuries. There is no swelling or blood. What could be causing the limp, and what should I do?

My puppy's spay scar has developed a pink area and a little bump six weeks after the surgery. The scar had almost disappeared, but this is new. The vet suggested monitoring it, but it seems a little redder now. What could this be, and should I be concerned?

My 2-year-old dog, Rylee, has a large swelling on the right side of her throat and is less active. She is eating but seems uncomfortable, especially when trying to eat or drink. The hospital was stumped as X-rays were fine, and urine tests were normal. The blood work shows mild anemia and increased NEU, but the total white blood count is normal. What could be causing the swelling and her discomfort?
