My dog, a 6-year-old lab/pit mix named Lucky, suddenly started shaking, fell down, lost control of his leg movements, had dilated eyes, was drooling, smiling, and breathing heavily. This has never happened before. Additionally, there was bright yellow vomit on my carpet yesterday morning. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog ate rat poison and has vomited five times. It's late at night and I can't go to the vet until morning. What should I do to help my dog at home until I can take him to the vet?

My 19-month-old Maltipoo, Bowie, ate macadamia nuts and is showing signs of weakness in his legs and slight limping. He was seen by a vet who said he is clinically fine and received supportive care. However, he is still not walking normally and I'm concerned about when he will recover fully. Are there any risks of permanent damage, and should I monitor him closely?

I have an 8-year-old German Shepherd named Chance who recently developed a bladder infection. She has been experiencing frequent attempts to urinate with little to no urine coming out, and has even tried to urinate in the house. She had previously been sick with vomiting and diarrhea, and had blood in her stool. I have been giving her Science Diet fast acting stomach relief, yogurt/peanut butter treats, and plain pumpkin with her dog food. What could be causing her bladder issues and what can I do to help her?

My dog has an ingrown hair/whisker on her face that seems to be causing swelling and discomfort. She has been scratching and rubbing her face. Should I try to treat it at home or take her to a vet?
