My dog, Pete, has congestive heart failure due to tricuspid valve dysplasia. He started on Furosemide and Pimobendan yesterday. Today, his left hind leg is swollen and he's having trouble walking. There's no wound on his foot, and the swelling seems to be more around the knee area. He's also been anemic and taking omeprazole for a month to prevent GI bleeding. What could be causing the swelling and difficulty walking, and what should I do?

My 8-month-old golden retriever puppy, Georgia, put her nose into a big white lily and got orange pollen on it. She has been licking the pollen, but most of it has been washed off. Is there any concern for her health?

My dog, Cash, who is 2 years old, has a hurt paw. The paw pad is cut, and I gave him some sleepy medicine last night to calm him down. When did the dog last see a vet? Are they taking any medications?

My dog, Charli, who is 1 year and 11 months old, has started peeing clear liquid inside the house, especially when it rains. He is potty trained but seems scared of the rain. He is not drinking more water and does not show signs of blood, straining, or increased frequency, except for the increased peeing frequency. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Diva, age 8, is acting weird with symptoms like taking a long time to pee, having accidents in the house, shivering while lying down, and walking slower on her walks. What could be causing these issues and what can I do in the meantime?
