My 3-year-old female poodle-dachshund mix spends many hours under the daybed in the morning and then comes out to spend time with me in the afternoon. She eats fine, but it's odd for her to spend so much time under the bed. Is this behavior normal?

My 16-week-old Giant Schnauzer puppy, Molly, has a redundant vulva, a UTI, and a urine specific gravity of 1.003. She is currently on antibiotics and is not acting sick.

My 7-year-old pug started putting only his front paws down with his head down or flopping down wherever I was. He didn't eat last night, has a slight limp on one of his front paws, and his tummy was gurgling loudly. Could this be a headache, digestive issue, or something else?

My 11-year-old Pomeranian has been diagnosed with a heart problem and is experiencing coughing, panting, difficulty breathing, and coughing fits that end in sneezes and more coughing. She is currently on lasix, hycodan, and enalapril, but these medications do not seem to be helping. Her appetite is unaffected, but she sleeps more than usual. What needs to be done to determine the cause of her cough and manage her condition effectively?
