My 5-month-old puppy, Dexter, who is usually very energetic, hasn't eaten his food or had any water today and is very lethargic with his ears back and his breath smelling rotten. He pulls away when I touch his bottom jaw. Last week, he lost most of his baby teeth, but otherwise, he's been fine and has had all his vaccinations, though he's due for his next intestinal worming treatment.

My dog, Lucky, is 8 years old and has been chewing on his front feet for about 3 to 4 months. I don't remember the last time he saw a vet and he isn't on any medications. What symptoms should I be looking for and what should I do about his chewing behavior?

My 10.5-year-old lab, Chase, has a mild kidney condition and has been drinking water but not eating. He hasn’t eaten since Saturday, seems more tired than usual, and was vomiting initially but hasn’t done so in about 5 days. He weighs 120 lbs and there is no blockage according to an X-ray. What could be wrong with him?

My dog, Rudy, an 11-month-old Bovier des Flanders, has an ear infection that I noticed a week ago. Her ear has blackish discharge and a bad smell. She is very strong and stubborn, making it difficult to get her into the car to visit the vet. What can I do to address her ear infection and get her to the vet?

My English Bulldog, George, swallowed a 1-inch by 1-inch piece of his rubber toy about 14 hours ago. He is acting normal, eating, drinking, and pooping. He has passed similar soft pieces before. How likely is it that he will pass this piece, and what should I monitor for?
