My dog, Moose, a Great Pyrenees weighing around 100 lbs, ingested a decent amount of Sunniland Organic fertilizer 5-3-0 and has vomited at least five times. He is currently drooling and has shown no signs of breathing difficulties or an enlarged tummy. What should I do to help him and what are the potential risks?

My dog Diesel, a 7-year-old Newfoundland weighing 87lbs, has worsening allergies, particularly since moving to a 10-acre property. He is losing hair on his legs, face, and elbows, and his skin is bumpy, itchy, and dry, resembling dandruff. He mainly licks and chews his feet and legs, and his face is also affected. He has been given Benadryl (3 tablets of 25mg twice a day) but it doesn't seem to help. What treatment options are available for his severe allergies, and how should I manage his condition at home?

My dog, Tucker, a 6-year-old Border Collie with a heart murmur, has had diarrhea with blood for the last two days. He has been eating and drinking normally and going for walks. He has had diarrhea in the past, and my vet advised removing chicken from his diet, which I did. What could be causing this and what should I do?
