I have a chihuahua mix named Missy, born on 7/3/22, who is acting strange. She won't eat or drink, is wobbly on her legs, and has energy in small spurts. She woke up fine but started having issues about an hour and a half after I left for work. She has no vomiting or diarrhea, her gums are pink and black, and she weighs about 8 lbs. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, Mick, a 4.5-year-old Australian Shepherd/Lab mix, has not been eating for the past three days. He was taken to the vet, where an X-ray showed no obstructions, and his temperature was normal. Mick is still active and plays fetch, but he is a bit lethargic. What could be causing his lack of appetite, and what steps can be taken to help him?

My dog, Ajax, had a cone on for three weeks due to ACL and luxating patella surgery. After removing the cone, he scratched his face and now his eye is red around it. He doesn't have allergies and no other skin issues. What should I do?

My 12.5 lb dog, Jake, just ate about 2/3 of an ounce of dark chocolate about 10 minutes ago. He hasn't vomited and seems normal. What should I do?

My dog ate meatballs cooked in grape jelly. What should I do if she vomits and seems to be acting normal afterwards?

My dog, Canela, ate chicken yesterday (which she usually doesn't eat) and then vomited, had diarrhea, and later showed blood in her stool. She's been drinking water but still has blood in her stool when she tries to poop. She doesn't seem to be in pain and her energy is somewhat normal, but she's been a bit down due to the diarrhea. What should I do?
