My one-year-old American bulldog, Mac, suddenly started limping on his back left leg two days ago. He seems to feel better and takes walks, but then suddenly yelps and has been acting strangely, pacing around and unable to settle. He limps on and off, and when he yelps, he shakes for a bit. There is no visible wound, but he was sensitive to touch on his paw yesterday. He's normally a very happy dog, but his behavior is not normal. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

Our 4.5-month-old mini Goldendoodle, Honey, weighing approximately 14 lbs, just swallowed a small sock or hair scrunchy. What should we do to ensure she safely vomits it up and what precautions should be taken after the incident?

My pit bull terrier/boxer mix, Copper, has a swollen dew claw nail bed that is bothering him. He recently finished antibiotics for a broken nail and now has sores on his front paws. What can I do to help him at home since I can't afford a vet visit right now?

My 17-year-old Beagle, Hershey, wakes up panting and thirsty, and has started urinating more frequently in the house. She occasionally coughs when she wakes up, but otherwise shows no other symptoms. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Buddy, who is approximately 12 years old, has been acting weird, not eating or drinking much, off balance when trying to walk, and stiff when moving. He seems to be just laying around and not himself. When did you first notice this decrease in the dog's appetite, and does the dog seem to be in any pain?

Our five-year-old 89 lb lab mix, Luna, just ate a half of an everything bagel with a little cream cheese. Should I induce vomiting? She is healthy with occasionally a slight elevation in SDMA that our vet is following.
