I have a 14-year-old Westie who has been very healthy but recently has shown signs of weakness in his back legs, difficulty getting up, and a prominent spine. I also found a soft lump on his left hip. He's still eating and drinking well. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be preparing for something serious?

My dog got a hold of a bottle of Deramaxx, 6.5 75mg tablets. I tried peroxide to induce vomiting. What other steps should I take or watch for?

I have a 65-pound dog with diarrhea for 36 hours and two small dogs who started having diarrhea earlier today. The only change in their diet was a different flavor of wet food (beef instead of chicken). The larger dog is also drooling excessively. What do you suggest?

I have a 7-year-old dog named Bambi who has been experiencing skin itching, inflammation, and other symptoms such as excessive sleeping, red and hot skin, hair loss, and black spots on his skin. He has been treated with antibiotics, flea drops, anti-itch shampoo, and a dip solution. My concerns include his high body temperature, the black spots, and a black, dirt-like substance under his legs and tummy that won't wash off. What could be causing these issues and how can I treat them?

My dog was choking on a bone, but it cleared, but now his swallowing is weird like something is stuck. He drank water and some coconut oil. Should I rush him to the hospital? He seems to have a hiccup-like swallowing issue.
