My 1-year-old American Eskimo, Aurora, woke up crying and whimpering from midnight to 5am. She went outside several times to pee but continued to whimper. She has been sleeping most of the day and cries when no one is near her. Yesterday, she received a couple of shocks from a training collar set at a higher voltage than usual. She has not been eating or drinking normally, refusing her own food but eating human food and licking plates. She hasn't pooped in over 12 hours but has continued to pee. What could be causing her distress and what should I do?

My bordoodle puppy, Henry, is about 20-25 weeks old. While playing, I noticed he didn't pick up the ball and bring it back, and there was blood on the ball. It appears one of his bottom canine teeth has come out. His behavior is normal, and he's still playing with our other dog. Is it necessary to take him to the vet, and is it normal for a canine tooth to come out this late in his puppy stage?

My Shih Tzu ate a plate of turkey and started crying and shaking in pain about five minutes later. The dog is 15 pounds and ate two sandwich-sized pieces of turkey. What could be causing this reaction and what should I do?

I dropped a few grapes on the floor, 3 or 4 max, and my dog, Rambo, a 6-year-old 76-pound dog, ate them. Do I need to worry?

My 14-year-old male small mixed terrier named Jake has been experiencing a dry cough all day. He is breathing fine, and I gave him half a Benadryl about 3 hours ago. He has not been around other dogs recently, and none of my other pets have left the yard or house. Has a veterinarian ever mentioned him having a heart issue or a heart murmur?

My dog, Chloe Lynn, who turned 12 in September, has been eating and throwing up for several days. Today, she won't eat anything and seems more tired than usual. She is not in pain, her tummy is slightly enlarged, and she is spayed. She has been taking Denamaren for several years. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?
