My 1-year-old, 6-pound Chihuahua named Millie ate a dried dead lizard and has been acting oddly since, showing signs of nervousness such as ears back, tail tucked, being abnormally clingy, and wanting to lay under the bed. Should I take her to the ER or wait?

I brought my 8-week-old golden retriever/lab puppy home a week ago. He's been fine with no diarrhea until today. He had a stressful day yesterday with many people around, and today he's had two rounds of diarrhea, not runny but with a pudding texture. His appetite was poor this morning but fine now, and he's very active. He may have picked up something off the floor or explored outside. Should I be concerned or just monitor the situation?

My dog, Violet, a 5-year-old picky eater, has been licking her lips more than usual, refusing treats, and showing a decreased appetite and energy level. She's also been sleeping on my lap and shaking slightly, which could be due to the recent cold weather. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Miko, has a red spot on her vulva. She is 1 year old, not fixed, and had her first heat about three months ago. I noticed the spot last night, and there has been no unusual licking or rubbing. What could this be and what should I do?
