My 10-year-old Pomeranian cross, Tika, has been showing signs of lethargy, decreased playfulness, less excitement when I come home, increased sleep, sadness, decreased appetite, difficulty jumping, and occasional accidents. She also yelps in pain when picked up and seems reluctant to go outside. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My two small dogs, Bailey and Annabelle, ate a small portion of Tom cat mouse killer. They weigh 6 lbs each and are almost 8 years old. I'm not sure how much they ate, but it was a tiny edge of a 1x1/2” block. What should I do?

My 14-year-old healthy Chihuahua, Happy Dog, suddenly started screeching for no apparent reason. He's been acting weird, shaking, and screeching even while laying down. I'm worried and considering taking him to the vet, but I'm also afraid they might suggest putting him to sleep due to his age. What could be causing this behavior, and what should I do?

My 4 1/2 month old pup, Shadow, has had persistent diarrhea for a week. She recently swallowed a dead baby bird, and despite trying various home remedies, the diarrhea hasn't stopped. She drinks a lot of water, has a good appetite, and plays normally, but her stool alternates between hardening and becoming runny again. What should I do to help her recover?

My 80-pound, 7-year-old dog named Romeo ate 2 Snickers bars from the counter. Is there any risk of toxicity or adverse effects from the chocolate?
