My 1-year-old Chihuahua, Elly, has been experiencing diarrhea and vomiting today. She had solid poop followed by liquid poop, vomited undigested and digested food, and her last bowel movement was mostly air with a small amount of liquid. She is acting normally otherwise, drinking water, and her gums are light pink. Should I withhold food or offer a bland diet like white rice and boiled chicken? I also have anti-inflammatory and anti-vomiting medication from another dog, is it safe to give these to Elly?

My dog, Michael, has had red sores all over his back and under his legs for about 5 or 6 weeks. The sores scab up and fall off, but new ones appear. He was on prednisone for 8 days, which helped initially, but the condition worsened after stopping the medication. Our local vet in Mexico recommended Apoquel, but after 10 days, it hasn't improved. What could be causing this and what should we do?

My dog, Scout, ate a tube of Desitin. He is about 80 pounds and is 10 months old. I have been away for about 3.5 hours and found vomit on the floor when I returned. I gave him a little peroxide to make him throw up more. What should I do next and is there any risk of toxicity?
