I accidentally used human toothpaste (about a pea size amount) instead of canine toothpaste when I brushed my dog's teeth. My dog is a 60lb, 5-year-old female Doberman in great health, showing no signs or symptoms of illness. She was last seen by a vet within the last 6 months and is on Proin 50mg twice a day for incontinence. Is there any cause for concern?

My 4-year-old female golden retriever, Peggy, is crying and won't get up. She has a good appetite but seems to be in pain in her hind quarters. She has been lethargic for a few hours. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Marshall, has been throwing up clear fluids and coughing since last night. He might have eaten something unusual, as he likes to chew on things. He is under a year old, almost 100 lbs, and has not received his vaccines. He has no appetite and is lethargic, but there is no noticeable abdominal swelling. What should I do?

Iām not sure if my dog, Lilah, a 1-year-old weighing 60 lbs, ate a button battery. She was acting normal after potentially chewing on a pack of batteries that were busted open. What should I do and what signs should I look for?

My 6-year-old Yorkie, Faith, started limping on her back left leg. She has had sciatic issues in that leg before. Her appetite is normal, and she still wants to run around and play, but her leg seems out of place, and the limp worsens after she's been laying down. Could her leg be broken or dislocated, or is it possibly a spinal disorder like degenerative disc disease?

My dog, Murphee, a 4-year-old German Shepherd weighing 79 pounds, has been vomiting off and on for the last 4 hours. The vomit is liquidy and foamy, and she has eaten some grass before vomiting. She doesn't seem to have eaten anything unusual, and her energy level is normal, but she is tired and not eating much. There is no diarrhea, and her gums are pink with a dark line, which is normal for her. She is breathing normally and does not seem to be in pain or bloated. What could be causing her vomiting, and what should I do?
