My 9-month-old Chihuahua/malaise mix, Tipsy, has been vomiting food, foam, and water, not drinking, and has had bloody diarrhea. Her nose is warm. What should I do and is this life-threatening?

My dog laid down on her back when a 12-week-old husky approached, and it looked like the husky might have stepped on her chest while playing. Immediately, my dog started wheezing and coughing. I picked her up, and she has been fine since, eating and drinking normally. She also occasionally gags after eating. Should I be worried about a fractured lung, and what are some warning signs to look out for?

My beagle ate a dead mouse on her walk. She swallowed it down really quick. It's been a few hours and she seems fine. My concern is if the mouse was poisoned. How long before I know she will be fine and is it possible to take a blood test to see if she has poison in her?

We have found worms in our Husky pup, Kai. She started showing symptoms last Wednesday after picking her up from the kennel. She has no appetite initially but is now eating okay. We found worms in her feces today. She has not vomited and there is no blood in her stool. She was at the vet a month ago and is current on all her shots. What type of worms are these and what treatment is recommended?

I have a 45 lb dog named Wyatt who injured his rear leg while running through the woods. The injury appears to be a superficial laceration about 4cm long with minimal bleeding. I have cleaned the wound with peroxide, applied pressure with a bandage, and given him Tylenol 250mg. He was able to bear weight initially but is now limping. My concerns are: do sutures or staples have a time limit for application? Do we need antibiotics, and can we obtain them tomorrow? Can I use dermabond on dogs?
