My dog, Teddy, an 8-year-old Lhaso Apso, Pekingese, Shih Tzu mix, stopped following me around a few days ago. He seemed tired and lethargic, and now he is limping. He has a history of a knee condition affecting his hind legs, but it rarely causes noticeable issues. What could be causing his current symptoms and what should I do?

My 1.5-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Wellington, swallowed a small piece of a tennis ball's inner core, which is hard plastic. He has a history of IBD and colitis. He is playful, has his appetite, and had a bowel movement with a tiny bit of blood on top of the stool. What should I do, and when should I be concerned?

My mini Schnauzer, Theo, age 8, is experiencing severe itching and hives, primarily on his back, bottom, and neck. I tried Benadryl, which worked for about 90 minutes. He has a history of sensitivity to bee stings but no prior hives. What should I do?

My dog, Ginger, is restless, burying herself in her favorite blanket, and whining. My children believe they saw a sac about almost 2 hours ago but are unsure if she popped it. She is 9 weeks pregnant and has a tight belly that is not contracting. She ate but is disinterested in water. What should I do?

My 9-year-old pitbull, Pando, has had a severe bacterial skin infection all over his body for the last 2 months. We have visited numerous vets, but the treatments have not helped. He recently stopped eating voluntarily, and now his stool contains bloody mucus. Pando has lost a significant amount of weight. What could be causing this and what further steps should be taken?
