I am trying to crate potty train my 2-year-old toy poodle, Ernie. He wakes me up multiple times at night to go outside to urinate. He has never been properly potty trained and has used a mixture of puppy pads and the carpet. I am now consistently crating him at night, and he cries to wake me up so I take him out to urinate, provide positive reinforcement, and then put him back in the crate. I am concerned that he is not learning to hold it. What can I do to help him learn to hold it overnight?

My dog broke out in itchy hives last night and is trying to rub on everything. She is a year and a half old and has never had hives before. We gave her Benadryl 6 hours ago and a bath, but she is worse now with hives on her face. What can we do?

My dog, who is 7 years old, has not been eating and has no energy for the past 2 days. The dog was fine on Friday. What could be the issue and what steps should I take to help?

My dog, Doughty, is acting very scared, has bumps around his mouth, is drooling excessively, and has been staring off into space for hours. He won't eat, drink, or move. His nose is running, and he seems to be giving up. What could be wrong and what should I do?

Our 80 lb lab chewed on a 1 oz sample bottle of eye glass cleaner from the optometrist. Most of it spilled out, but it's unclear if he ingested any. It’s been 20 minutes and his behavior hasn’t changed. Has he thrown up since chewing the bottle? What's the Lab's name and age? Is there anything else the Vet should know before I connect you?

My dog ate approximately two homemade Pillsbury chocolate fudge brownies last night. She vomited today but is not acting like herself. Her stomach is bloated, she seems lethargic, and she is very thirsty. What should I do?
