My dog, Oscar, has been having very runny, slimy, and maroon-colored poop for a week now, and he cried after finishing his poop today. He is about 9 years old, very active, and has no other known health issues. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 3-year-old female black Lab is panting heavily, hiding under beds and in corners, and acting oddly after possibly being bitten, shocked, or scared. She is not bleeding and shows no clear signs of injury. What should I do?

My dog, Freyja, is wobbly and has difficulty standing. She also had spontaneous urination while lying down, which has happened twice, with the first incident resolving the next day. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I think I gave my dog too much sodium by feeding him bacon. He was walking unsteadily after eating it, but now he seems alert and not lethargic. What should I do?

My dog Aspen, a 5 1/2-year-old Great Dane, has a rash across her top lip that looks like lipstick and began a few days ago. It doesn't seem to bother her. Could it be caused by new treats she received this week? Aspen is also being treated for joint stiffness and pain but has no new medications or symptoms related to that.

My dog, Roly, had knee reconstruction 6 days ago. His fentanyl patch, which was a 75mg one put on Friday morning, might have come off Monday morning but was left on longer as he was not walking well and might have nerve damage. Today, I tried to remove the patch, but Roly ate it. It's been 2 hours, and his pupils are still very large, but he lifts his head when I touch him. How long do the effects of the fentanyl patch take to wear off, and is there any way to tell?
