My dog's back legs are not working right. He is lame for a few minutes upon getting up from his dog bed but it quickly goes away. He is able to run and play normally. No pain. He is 'skidding out' on my floors that are not carpet, at an increasing rate each day. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Sparty, is acting very strange after being bitten by a spider a month ago. She has been clingy, jumping on high surfaces, not playing with other dogs, not going to the bathroom in her usual spots, and has strange bowel movements. Her appetite is normal, and there is no vomiting or diarrhea. There have been no recent changes in her environment. What could be causing this behavior and is it safe to wait until our vet appointment on the 19th?

My dog, Lofty, is very weak, not going to the bathroom properly, and has started having accidents in the house with sticky urine. He isn't jumping on furniture or playing like he used to. This has been a concern for the last week and has gradually worsened. He hasn't seen his main vet recently, only a cheaper traveling vet who expressed his glands, causing him pain. What could be causing these issues, and what should I look for or do before his appointment tomorrow?

My 12-year-old male Shih Tzu, Harley, is experiencing chronic gagging, paw licking, and rear right leg limping. He survived a vicious attack 16 months ago and has a heart murmur. He is also overweight. What can be done to correct the gagging?
