I have a 7-month-old Bernese Mountain Dog who struggles to eat and is not food motivated, but loves treats. We've been trying to feed him 2 cups of food twice a day, leaving it out for 30 minutes and taking it away if he doesn't eat. He only ate 1.5 cups out of 4 cups yesterday and this morning only 0.5 cups out of 2. He still has energy and his poop is normal. What should we do, and when should we be worried?

I administered a 0.6 ml B12 injection to my 2.5-year-old female Husky and am concerned that I may have injected it into a blood vessel or vein. What are the signs and symptoms to look for, and what are the potential consequences if the injection did enter a blood vessel or vein?

My dog, Gemma, a 10-year-old yellow Lab, has bloody diarrhea. The blood appeared after about 5 bowel movements today, and she now only drips of blood when she squats. She had a similar issue a year ago that cleared up with medication. She is currently under stress due to the loss of her sibling and has been swimming in a saltwater pool. Should she be left overnight or does she need emergency treatment before her vet appointment tomorrow morning?

My 15-year-old terrier, Noel, is passing small amounts of red blood and just threw up. She was in pain yesterday, and after spending $400 on treatment for arthritis, she is now passing blood and not eating much. What should I do since the vet is closed?

My American Bulldog, Zues, has been vomiting for 5 weeks and got much worse last week. He is no longer walking and is only keeping down a liquid diet. He recently vomited a large chunk of plum. What could be causing this and what should I do?
