My Norwich Chihuahua, Teddy, has a muscle spasm in his back. He is 2 years old and weighs 10 lbs. I can't afford a vet and want to know if there is something I can give him for inflammation and pain. This has happened before due to jumping off my bed, and I have had X-rays and blood work done, which showed a little inflammation on one side of his back.

My dog, Brick, a mini schnauzer who is 8 years old, has been unusually quiet, sneezing, and has a warm nose. He is eating and drinking water. The symptoms started 2 days ago, and he hasn't been licking or scratching. What could be wrong and what should I do?

My dog, Missy, fell down the stairs and her back right leg may be sprained or broken. She is unable to move the leg and is in pain. I currently cannot afford to take her to a vet. What should I do in the meantime, and is there a timeframe to monitor her condition before considering a vet visit?

My dog Jax, who weighs 20lbs, ate most of an Advil Sinus Congestion & Pain tablet 20 minutes ago. My other dog, who weighs 50lbs, may have also eaten some. What should I do and what are the potential risks?

I have people puppy sitting for me who gave my 10-week-old puppy, Bruno, a shot without taking him to a vet first. They bought the shot themselves and administered it. I'm worried about the potential risks and want to know if this was a bad decision and how to ensure they didn't do anything wrong.

My 3-year-old golden retriever, Ziggy, has been experiencing loose stools and a behavior where he squats multiple times in succession, trying to poop but producing little to nothing. He seems happy, playful, and energetic, with no other symptoms. We've tried probiotics and special food, but his stool remains 50% formed and 50% loose/diarrhea. What could be causing this and what further steps should we take?
