My 10.5-year-old diabetic Labradoodle, Max, recently switched from Vetsulin to Levimere and has had blood sugar readings over 500 since 6 PM, despite an insulin dose. He is lethargic, not himself, and was vomiting earlier. Should I take him to the emergency vet or monitor him until morning?

My puppy, Syd, a 45 lbs 9-month-old German shepherd pit mix, possibly ate her flea tick collar about an hour ago. She is still active and playful. How can I make her vomit and are there any other concerns I should be aware of?

My parents' Pomeranian dog, Bear, has black skin disease. He was on medication for itching, which worked, but my parents have financial issues. Are there any over-the-counter medications that could help? Bear has been itching for about a year, his back is almost black, he's losing hair, and getting infections from itching. He is 6 years old.

I have a 4-month-old Miniature Schnauzer named Callie Jo who ate one tablet of generic Excedrin. She is 11.5 lbs and healthy, but I am concerned about any potential effects. What should I do and what should I watch for?

My female boxer/pitbull mix, Lilo, has an extended stomach and was recently treated for worms. She shows no other symptoms such as vomiting or blood in her stool, and she remains playful, active, and eats well. I haven't seen worms in her stool for the past few days. What should I do next?

My dog, a 1.5-year-old Silky Terrier weighing about 10/11lbs, ate a tiny piece of a McDonald's cheeseburger, less than an inch in size, which might have contained a few tiny pieces of onion. I'm concerned about potential health issues from the onion or the fast food's greasiness. Is he likely to be OK?
