My dog, Luke, who is 5-6 years old and has a messed up thyroid, suddenly started acting scared 10 minutes ago, which is unusual for him. I've tried giving him treats, playing, and taking him outside, but he just went back into his fearful state. What could be causing this sudden fear, and what should I do?

Our beagle, Ginny, was fine this morning but now has no energy, no appetite, is moaning, shaking, and snapping at the cat. She is also walking slowly and cried out when pressure was put on her low back. What could be causing these symptoms and should we take her to a 24-hour vet?

My 11-year-old dog, Rico, has never had an ear infection before. On Monday, I noticed a significant smelly discharge from his right ear. I cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide and Q-tips, and by Thursday, the discharge had reduced but was still pink and a bit swollen. Rico seems to be sleeping and going through his normal routines without discomfort. What should I do to address this issue?

What can I do for him?
