My dog, Penny, a mixed breed (blue heeler, collie, lab), has been biting at her tail and bum, whimpering, and has fast breathing. She hasn't pooped much in the past day, and had eaten corn bread off the counter two days ago. What could be causing her discomfort and what can I do to help her?

My 6-month-old Shitzu puppy, Brownie, had diarrhea after licking a dove chocolate 4 times and eating 3 crumbs of Pringles. She is acting normally but has gas. Is it safe to monitor her overnight and take her to the vet early in the morning if needed? Should she still go to her grooming appointment on Saturday?

My Golden Doodle is limping after running around the yard. She pulled her shoulder last fall and I think she reinjured it. Can I give her aspirin for pain until I can talk to her vet? Ashe is 75-78 lbs.

My dog, Scarlett, a 5-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback Pitbull mix, has been lethargic for around 4 hours, refusing to eat, drink, or get up. She is shaking and trembling, especially when touched or moved, and has recently vomited what looks like poop. She also won't let us touch her back left leg and growls when we try to prop her up. She was fine this morning but started showing these symptoms after being outside for about 30-45 minutes. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should we do?
