I have just taken ownership of a 10-year-old mixed-breed dog weighing 5.5 kgs. She seems very happy to walk with me for 6 kms each day at a slow to moderate pace. Is this too much for her, considering she may have a narrowing trachea and a luxating patella in her left hind leg?

My dog, Leo, a 3-year-old female, mated with another dog and since then has been unable to hold anything down, is extremely depressed, and has had seizures occasionally. She is normally very energetic but has become withdrawn, refuses to eat, and can only drink water but vomits it up. She also bled quite a bit after mating but the bleeding has since slowed down. Should I be concerned, and what should I do?

My dog, Jax, a 5-month-old 15-pound dog, ate a package of d-CON containing cholecalciferol (vitamin D3). I induced vomiting in both my dogs, but I'm unsure how much Jax actually ingested. It's been about an hour since he vomited. What should I do next, and are there any long-term effects if toxicity occurs?

My puppy, Bear, stopped eating and drinking yesterday morning. He won't take any water and just lays down. He isn't whining or showing signs of pain. He turns away from food and water when offered.
