My dog, Kia, a 2-year-old Chihuahua, recently had puppies 7 weeks ago. She now has a strong, rotting odor, and a small amount of fluid is draining from her vulva. There have been no changes in her diet except for the addition of milk. What could be causing this odor, and what should I do?

My dog, Nahla, a 4.5-year-old mixed breed, has a small bulge in her hip, won't put pressure on her leg, and cries when moved. She has been licking the area and occasionally favors the same leg. We've taken her to the vet before for similar issues, but x-rays showed no concerns. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I need to find an emergency vet that will see our dog for what appears to be a dislocated shoulder from a dog fight. We have money to pay today but can pay a bill. We are in Philadelphia, PA.
