A 6-8 week old female puppy, named Lupe, was found abandoned and is now waking up screaming from her sleep every 2-3 hours.

My dog, Daisy, a 1-year-old, has been sneezing non-stop and drooling a lot for about 30 minutes. She was outside but didn't eat anything, and she's been drinking the same amount of water as usual. She also tried to scratch her face on the floor. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 8-year-old miniature Schnauzer, Dexter, has been having diarrhea all day, which turned bright red recently, and has vomited three times. He hasn't eaten much and there's no known change in his diet. What can I do for him until my vet is available?

Our dog, Cooper, started having involuntary leg twitching while awake. They seem to be spasms, and we want to check whether or not he needs to be seen by a vet ASAP. He was fine before bed, but the twitching started within the last 20 minutes. He is a healthy 6-year-old lab mix, up to date on physicals, and not on any medications. What should we do?

My dog, Buford, a 3-year-old, has been scratching and licking excessively every summer. He is on a flea preventative but has not been on any allergy medications. His belly and legs are red and he is losing hair there. What could be causing this and what can I do to help him?
