My puppy, Daisy, is favoring her right hind leg. She seems to walk okay, but won't attempt the stairs and yelps when I lift her to pick her up. She seems to stand up on it okay. Just started yesterday. What could be causing this and what should I do?

Our mixed breed dog is 10 years old and has recently become lethargic, refusing to eat anything, including his favorite foods, and has started coughing. He is skin and bones and has been like this for about 3 weeks. We have seen a local vet multiple times and have tried various foods, including special sick dog foods, but he still refuses to eat. What could be causing this and what should we do?

My dog, Joyce, a 14-month-old, has been straining for 4-5 hours to pass stool, which is stuck halfway out. The stool is not stuck in the hair around her anus. What should I do?

My 6-year-old Shih Tzu mix, Sadie, is experiencing lethargy, shivering, and loud breathing like a stuffy nose. She has been like this for about 24 hours and is eating fine. Sadie has a heart murmur and we have 3 new puppies that we've had for 10 days, which were checked and cleared by a vet before we brought them home. Could the puppies be carrying an upper respiratory virus that is affecting Sadie?

My 8-week-old puppy, Bobo, was playing at home, went for a drive, and then became lethargic, had a dry nose, and started shaking. He hasn't eaten today, and his stool was normal this morning. He might have eaten cat food or bunny pellets. What could be wrong and what should I do?
