Our dog, Sugar, a 3.5-year-old pitbull, was curled up on her bed shaking, had a bout of diarrhea, and showed weakness in her back legs. She also hit the floor when trying to get off the couch, but once up, she seemed to move okay. She is lethargic, uninterested in playing, and has been drinking and eating less. She has a history of chewing on things like broken tree branches in the backyard. What could be causing these symptoms and what should we do?

We recently added a 7-month-old CKC to our family. He has adapted well but has had issues with ear mites, yeast infections, and diarrhea. We've tried various treatments and dietary changes, including Tresaderm for his ears, probiotics for his diarrhea, and adding pumpkin and canned food to his diet. We're concerned about overmedicating and want to ensure he has a good diet that results in solid, normal stools. What further advice can you provide?

Hello! My dog Xena had ACL surgery (TTA -- metal brace) around 6 months ago. She recovered well, however today after running around the park she slipped and now is limping on the leg. Should I be concerned that she has reinjured or done major damage to the surgery?
