I got a 6-week-old puppy that weighs about 3.6 lbs. He chewed on and possibly swallowed parts of a chive plant. He had a normal bowel movement, is playful, and has pink gums. Do I need to rush him to an emergency vet, and can I give him activated charcoal?

My 19-month-old toy poodle, Rocky, may have ingested multivitamins containing 81 mg aspirin, 5000 mcg Biotin, 1000 mcg Vit B-12, and 5000 IU Vit D-3 at 9 am today. He is showing symptoms of lower than usual energy levels and is lethargic. What should I do?

My German Short-haired Pointer (45 pounds) may have eaten two ibuprofen tablets (200 MG each). I'm not sure if he did or not, but they were placed out and are gone now. What should I do?

My Shih Tzu Maltese, Charlie, has been squealing and crying, especially when his rib and upper stomach area are touched. He's been lethargic, not eating much, and has a tight stomach and chest area. I've tried giving him laxatives for constipation, but it hasn't helped. What could be causing his pain, and what should I do?

I have a 10-year-old medium schnauzer named Dodge who has had kennel cough for about 1-2 weeks. He stopped eating 5 days ago and has been gagging. He ate yesterday but is still showing symptoms. What should I do, especially since I cannot afford an X-ray in Miami?
