My 1-year-old Rottweiler, Titus, won't put weight on his rear leg and has been limping for about two weeks. He walks gingerly on it but runs with other dogs outside. My daughter accidentally stepped on his paw, and the lameness started after that. What could be the issue, and what should I do?

My dog has a large sore on her left hind leg that appears to be an abscess that has broken open, with holes in the tissue. The sore is seeping clear, bloody fluid and is accompanied by swelling. My dog, a 9-year-old Bassett Hound named Dolly, also limps and licks the wound frequently. She is on Heartguard, Nexguard, and monthly shots for arthritis. What can I do for her pain and how should I treat this wound?

My 3.5-month-old female pitbull puppy, Rahriee, weighing 11kg, ate half of a mud cake slice containing 4% cocoa, approximately 100g in size. She hasn't vomited since eating it, and it was consumed between 20 minutes to an hour ago. Is this a cause for concern, and should I be looking for specific symptoms or actions to take?
