I found a small red dot on my dog, Shiliu, who is 2 years old. The dot is located on his back, and we discovered it today. Shiliu has not been licking or rubbing the skin. What could the red dot be, and should I be worried about it being a tick bite?

My dog, Mishka, a 4-year-old recently adopted from a shelter, was neutered on Monday and has not pooped since, nor has he peed in the last 24 hours. He also has kennel cough, which has worsened, causing him to cough up mucus and wake up throughout the night. He has eaten only a small amount of grilled chicken since coming home and has an appointment with the vet on Saturday. Should I seek emergency vet care sooner?

My dog, Peach, a 9-month-old maltipoo weighing 3 pounds, ate a mini Reese's cup. It has been 15 minutes since she ate it, and she has not vomited. Should I be concerned about her health, particularly regarding heart rate or hyperthermia?

My 12-15-year-old lab named Mya is lethargic, not eating, went potty in the house, doesn't want to go outside, and keeps tensing up like she's having spasms. Her nose is cold. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
