Our dog is 13 and just got diagnosed. The vet said he is pretty healthy for his age. Is this the start of the end for him?

My year-old Toy Poodle, Freedom, ingested several tablespoons of butter and immediately vomited large amounts of liquidy butter, followed by diarrhea. He seems okay now but has been drinking water and chewing on a dog bone. The incident was about 6 hours ago. Should I feed him something bland, and should I seek veterinary attention?

We took our dog in on Monday for a lepto vaccine, never had one before. No immediate reaction. Then Wednesday morning, we noticed a golf ball-sized lump on his spine between his shoulder blades and he was in a lot of pain and could hardly walk. Today, he can't walk at all and the lump is gone, but both his back legs are limp. When we took him to the vet earlier this afternoon, they gave him a steroid injection. His front legs aren't shaking anymore, but he still can't walk. We can't pick him up to get him to urinate as he is in a lot of pain still. There's been no vomiting, fever, or diarrhea either. Please, any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

My 6-year-old dog has always laid in the same area of the yard on a chain. Recently, he has been scratching his belly when he comes inside. We live in Illinois and had a mild winter. Could there be a mite in the grass, and what should I do?

I have a Chihuahua who seems weak, and I suspect she may have ingested heroin or cocaine at my neighbor's place. What should I do? Is she in danger?
