My 14-year-old Shih Poo, Pepito, has slowed down, hardly responds to commands, and throws up when he eats his regular homemade raw food diet, which includes turkey. He managed to keep down sardines in water yesterday. What should he eat today, and could his symptoms be related to kidney disease?

My 10-year-old dog, Cali, ate something outside and started vomiting grass and bile, and now has been vomiting bloody mucus and having bloody diarrhea. She's about 50 lbs and was only outside for a few minutes. She has been drinking water but not eating. Should I take her to an emergency vet, and if so, what can I do in the meantime to help her feel more comfortable?

My dog chewed up a bottle of betta water conditioner containing Calcium chloride, cobalt chloride, lithium chloride, magnesium chloride, manganese chloride, nickel chloride, potassium chloride, potassium iodide, zinc EDTA, sodium molybdate, sodium selenate, and strontium chloride. The dog, Lena, weighs 102 lbs and is 1.5 years old. She chewed the bottle about 5 minutes ago and seems fine. Is there any cause for concern?

My puppy, Remi, may have eaten part of a rubber toy ring earlier this morning. She has been acting normal, has had normal eliminations, and has not vomited. I believe I saw pieces of the toy in one of her eliminations. Do I need to take her to the vet, or does it sound like it may continue passing through?
