My Miniature Pinscher, Gus, is in pain with a swollen abdomen, panting even when resting, and unable to get comfortable. He is also lethargic and whimpers when his sides are touched.

My 8-week-old puppy, Izzy, has been randomly yelping, especially around her hips, and her abdomen feels full but not hard or tight. She is eating, walking, and pooping fine, but it seems like she might be in pain. What could be causing this, and what steps should I take to help her?

My Bernese Mountain Dog, George, ate a whole bar of dark chocolate sometime within the last 8 hours. He weighs 88 lbs and will be 3 years old next month. Has George displayed any abnormal signs such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or an increased activity level?

My Great Dane, Molly, is pregnant and showing green mucus with no pups. She should be around 63 days pregnant, is not eating, and the green mucus started spotting last night. She is licking herself and locking herself a lot now. What should I do?

Our 14-year-old black lab/American shepherd mix, Cocoa, is tearing up and eating carpet in our living room and hallway daily, mostly at night when we're asleep. We've taken her to the vet, who put her on pain medications, including one for anxiety, but the behavior is getting worse. Cocoa has cancer and arthritis. What could be causing this behavior and what can we do to help her?
