I got my dog from the Humane Society over a year and a half ago. She's a medium-sized, three-year-old mixed breed with a great appetite and is pretty active. Recently, her fur color has been changing from jet black to brown in certain areas of her coat, and she has irregular urination habits, sometimes going up to 13 hours without peeing despite having chances to go outside. She's also been less active and seems depressed at times, though she can still be inspired to play and run. What might be wrong with her, and what should I do?

We are in South Texas and have big red wasps that hang out in the grass. Our medium-sized terrier dog bites at these wasps and gets stung. He is now very lethargic, won't eat or drink, and is losing weight rapidly. We thought this would pass but it hasn't. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

My dog, Canelo, a 1-year-old, has been vomiting for 3 days, with the vomit being a mix of liquid and his food, and last night he vomited yellow. He also hasn't been able to poop. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog ate some rat poison (racumin) and vomited up the poison packet, but some of the paste was still in it. How much danger is my dog in, and what should I do given that we live 100km from the nearest vet?

My white German Shepherd is about 19 months old. He has been tested at the vet and has been on a monthly heartworm pill, with clean test results. He runs a lot around the house and me, but is fine indoors, laying down and chilling. He is very thin but eats well. I thought he was thin due to running so much. He has not been to the vet in a year but was hyper and running then. We recently got a female for him, she eats the same and runs the same yard but is a lot thicker. He acts great, but I worry that something might be wrong and we're not doing anything about it.
