My dog, Oscar, age 7, may have been bitten by a snake. There are no changes in breathing or heart rate, but there is small blood on his nose and he seems scared. What should I do?

My dog, Sasha, has developed a blood blister on her nose that recently popped. She had a previous injury in the same area from a dog fight about two weeks ago. Should I be concerned about this new development, and what should I do next?

My dog, Cooper, is trying to poop but only liquid and blood are coming out. He is 8 years old, fully vaccinated, and has been on a Purina Pro Plan diet for sensitive skin and stomachs for a couple of months. He recently had a double knee replacement and takes Dasaquin with MSM daily. He is not happy, wagging his tail, or experiencing any recent stress or diet changes. What could be causing this issue and what should I do?

I have a 10-year-old boxer named Matty who has a large tumor between her front legs that bleeds occasionally and causes discomfort. She has lost a significant amount of weight, is not eating regular dog food, and has become very fragile. The tumor also causes her to hit the doggy door when she walks and emits a bad odor. I'm concerned about her quality of life and whether she is in pain. What should I do?

I have an 8-year-old Chihuahua mix named Lily who hurt her front foot 3 days ago. She has been limping, not eating, drinking, or using the bathroom, and is generally lethargic. I took her to a pet vet but couldn't get her checked due to their services being limited. I am unable to get her to a clinic until tomorrow and all nearby clinics are either too busy or too expensive. What could be causing her symptoms and what can I do in the meantime?
