I have a mini rat terrier named Monster, who is 16 months old and is agitated, uncomfortable, and possibly constipated. She recently ate paper towels and had an unknown bite on her chest two weeks ago. What could be causing her discomfort and what steps should I take to help her?

My dog ingested a large amount of what I think is clay or play doh from my niece's craft project. It has been more than 24 hours and my dog has been vomiting, is very lethargic, seems dehydrated, and is now experiencing whole body spasms that are getting increasingly stronger. She is a small breed, chihuahua pom mix. It is Sunday where I live and no emergency vets are available. When she vomits, it sort of smells like blood, but it is clear liquid. She hasn't vomited since this morning. It is the afternoon now.

I have a 12-year-old Golden Retriever that is mostly an outdoor dog. During the months of June and July, we let him inside at night as he is afraid of fireworks. I noticed he was favoring his front left paw for about a week. Then, on the 4th of July, I didn't get him inside fast enough, and he was pawing at the wooden gate. When he came inside, he was bleeding from two nails. I treated him with blood stopper from the pet store, but it seems to keep bleeding. I just checked on him, and it was a severe bleed. I treated the nails again, wrapped the paw, and sent him inside to his room in the house. What should I do about the continuous bleeding, and is there anything else the veterinarian should know about my dog's health?
