Hi, my dog's name is * and she is a fixed, 3-year-old Lab/German Shepherd mix. All of a sudden, she looks heavier. It looks like she put on a lot of weight out of nowhere. Her stomach is also a lot more pinker than usual. What is this? And what can I do? Thank you.

My 6-month-old dog, Toby, has been showing signs of decreased appetite, lethargy, eating grass, vomiting, and diarrhea for about 2-3 days. He doesn't seem to be in pain, but he hasn't received any shots other than a dewormer pill. What should I do to help him, and is it possible to treat potential parvovirus at home?

My 8lb dog, George, ate at least one Tootsie Roll, possibly several, and I gave him 1 1/2 tsp of expired hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting, but he hasn't vomited yet. Should I be concerned? Should I give him a second dose of hydrogen peroxide from a new bottle? He's acting normally and shows no signs of pain.

My dog, Apricot, has been licking her belly a lot recently, causing it to become very pink and raw. We changed her food a couple of months ago, around the time this behavior started. She doesn't have any known allergies and no rash, just the pink and raw skin from excessive licking. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Cedar, is not eating and is lethargic. He wouldn't get out of the car during a walk, and I've checked him for cuts and sensitivity in his abdomen, which seem normal. When did you first notice this decrease in the dog's appetite, and does the dog seem to be in any pain?

Can I give my dog Advil, Tylenol, or aspirin for arthritis pain, and is it safe to give my dog a one-time dose of 82mg aspirin until I can get a prescription from the vet?
