I have an 11-year-old German Shepherd named Avalanche who is exhibiting distress, vomiting for several hours, and is restless and whining constantly. The vomit is very liquidy with white foam and he is drinking water, which he is also throwing up. His gums are mostly soft pink with some brown spots, and he was panting heavily earlier but seems to be more comfortable with ice packs. What can I treat this with, and if yes, with what?

Hello! My dog, Bindi, a 4-year-old weighing 50 pounds, got into my vitamins and a few medications, including magnesium supplements, a multivitamin, 50 mg of Zoloft per day, and a birth control pill per day. She consumed these within the last hour and has not vomited since. What should I watch for or if she needs to go in?

My dog, Seven, has a swollen left ear that is itching constantly. I have been giving her Benadryl and children's ibuprofen, but it's not helping. How can I address this issue without taking her to the vet due to financial constraints?

I have an old cat over 15 years old with a mouth/gum infection. The cat is too old for dental procedures and has already undergone numerous tests without treatment. I need a prescription for amoxicillin-clavulanate (amoxi clav) drops to clear up the infection and make the cat more comfortable. Can you provide a prescription or recommend a vet in Calgary who would prescribe the medication without requiring a full check-up, considering the high costs associated with vet visits in Canada?

I have a Queensland Heeler named Kona, who is just over 2 years old. She has a possessiveness problem and aggression towards other dogs, which has been an issue for about 4 years since she was 6 months old. We recently brought a new dog home and want them to get along. Kona is good with people and animals that aren't dogs. She gets at least an hour of fetch daily and hour-long walks every other day. She was last seen by a vet less than a month ago and is on heartworm and flea/tick prevention. What can be done to help Kona get along with the new dog and manage her aggression?

My dog, Bailey, ingested fuel and has been vomiting fluid and dog food that smells of fuel, along with occasional foamy vomit. She seems unwell, is laying on a cold floor, and keeps looking at me as if asking for help. How should I address this situation?
