My 10-year-old Beagle, Chevy, has vomited twice in the past couple of hours. The first time was chunky and all food, the second time was liquidy with grass. Since then, he has been shaking and panting. He is walking and moving around normally but is panting excessively. He doesn't seem to be in pain when his belly is pressed, but there is a gassy smell and he made a slight moaning sound. His gums are pink, and he hasn't eaten anything unusual. He weighs about 33 lbs and is not on any medications. What should I do?

My dog, Ellamay, a 4-year-old, recently had shots for rabies, parvo, and distemper, and then developed diarrhea in a liquified, mushy form. I suspect it might be a reaction to the shots. What could be causing this and what steps should I take to help her recover?

Our dog, Sasha, a 1.5-year-old weighing 18lbs, got into some bone meal fertilizer and was caught licking it about 5 minutes ago. We are unsure if we need to intervene. What should we do?

My 5-month-old French Bulldog, Lucy, broke her left rear metatarsal after falling down the stairs. The vet recommended pain meds and limited activity to let the bone heal on its own, without a cast or splint. Does this sound right, and is there any benefit in at least wrapping it or making a small splint?

My dog, R2, who is about 7 years old and possibly a mixed Labrador, has developed cataracts about a month ago. She is almost blind, drinks a lot of water, and may have diabetes. What should I do, and are there any low-cost options for cataract surgery or financial assistance for veterinary care?

My dog Piper, a 1.5-year-old healthy dog, was playing with a toy when it snapped back into her eye. She is keeping her eye shut more than usual and I'm worried. What should I do?
