My 10 1/2-year-old dog, Bentley, is lethargic and having trouble pooping. He is hunched over and only able to produce a small, hard amount of poop that sticks to his hair around the anus. He doesn't seem to be in pain and is still excited for car rides and short walks. He has been grumpy when examined and had some dreamworks dog chews recently. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Riley, a 4-year-old, has developed labored breathing that sounds like snoring, refuses to eat or drink on his own, and we've been giving him water via syringe every hour. What could be causing this and what should we do?

My 4-year-old pitbull, Gucci, has been vomiting for about a week and a half. She recently started throwing up her poop instead of letting it out from the other end. She stopped throwing up for a day or two after a vet visit where she was given nausea and anti-seizure meds, but now the vomiting has resumed. She is lethargic, not eating on her own, and only drinking water. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 20lb pug, Max, ate 6 chocolate-coated Little Debbie donuts and my son's 30mg Vyvanse. It's been about 30-45 minutes. What should I do to help Max, and what symptoms should I watch for?
