Hi! We picked up our dog Ellie from being boarded on Tuesday the 16th and she had a hacking cough. Now she doesn't want to eat or drink much, has snot dripping from her nose occasionally, feels cold on her ears and head, and seems more tired than usual. What could be wrong and what can I do at home until I can get her seen by her vet?

Ellie likely has an upper respiratory infection, possibly kennel cough, which requires in-person vet...

My 16-year-old dog, Baxter, who weighs about 17 lbs and has the beginning of heart failure, ate a dozen pothos leaves about 30 minutes ago. Should I induce vomiting, and if so, how should I do it?

My dog's temperature dropped to 97.7°F, she is licking at her feet, digging, and panting slightly. She is 63 days pregnant and has some yellow discharge when she pees. She is also nesting and licking her private parts a bit. She had a C-section with her first litter, and now she is trying to bite when I try to take her temperature. She is eating well but pooping in the house and her milk glands are enlarging and leaking. She started pushing a little bit and has a lot of fluid coming out. There are also drops of blood. What should I expect, and how can I help her?

My dog, Jaina, a 7-year-old 45-pound dog, ate one Hot Shot ant bait about 1 to 2 hours ago. She has not shown any signs of sickness yet and ate food normally. Should I be concerned, and is there anything I should do?

My dog, Rica, a 7-month-old English lab weighing 50 lbs, may have swallowed a 150mg Avapro pill. Should I make her vomit, and how should I monitor her for potential side effects?
