I have a 13-year-old overweight Chihuahua named Taco who has been lethargic, mopy, and not eating or drinking for the last two days. He barks half-yelps like he's in pain and walks very stiffly. His stomach seems more swollen. What could be wrong and what should I do?

My dog, North, is limping and won't put any weight on his front right paw. He didn't yelp or show any signs of injury before this started about an hour ago. He was playing with another dog earlier today but was walking and running normally until he came inside. Does anything look different with his legs/feet? Is there anything else the vet should know before I connect with them?

My 15-year-old, 15-pound male dog, Lucky, has had diarrhea for 15 to 18 hours. He was given pumpkin nuggets the day before. He has a history of a broken right pelvis from being hit by a truck, and he takes heartworm and flea/tick medication monthly. What can be done to help him feel better?

My dog, a 6 lb Yorkie mix with a Shih Tzu, ate a small piece of pink, sweet-smelling mouse poison about 10 minutes ago. What should I do?

My dog, Waylon, a 3-year-old 75-pound dog, swallowed a rib bone whole yesterday afternoon at 5pm. He has been sluggish, lethargic, and refusing food or treats since then. He has also been pooping liquid blood. Should I take him to a 24/7 emergency vet?

My dog, Bean, has been experiencing diarrhea and vomiting since Tuesday evening. The diarrhea has continued frequently, and she has vomited twice since then, once on Friday and once now. She is still drinking and behaving normally, but eats minimally on a bland diet. The vomit initially was foamy, but now contains the food she ate and little liquid. The diarrhea is orangish brown and has lessened in amount but not frequency. Could she have eaten something unusual in the yard? What should I do to help her recover?
