My 13-week-old dog, Lillie, swallowed one of my diamond earrings about 40 minutes ago. I gave her 2 teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting, but she only regurgitated the earring. What should I do next to ensure her safety and monitor her condition?

My 70-pound, 7-year-old Airedale named Daisy ate about 5-7 oz of plastic-wrapped chocolate cookies 30 hours ago. She is now acting weak, tired, and reluctant to get up. She has not vomited or had diarrhea, and there are no wrappers in her stool. What could be causing her sudden weakness and reluctance to move, and what should I do in the meantime until I can get her to the vet?

I accidentally gave my 18.4 lb cat 3cc of penicillin G IM (300,000 IU/mL) instead of the prescribed dose. The cat's hind leg where the injection was given is now numb and the cat can't walk on it. Should I take my cat to an emergency vet, and is there any concern about the leg being limp or nerve damage?

My dog, Fiona, a 7-year-old, sometimes shakes her head and scratches her ears. This morning, I noticed a bubble on the tip of her ear. I am on a fixed and tight income and heard warm compresses can help. What could be causing this issue, and what should I do to treat it?

My Yorkie, Niki, has been shaking a lot and wants to be held in a blanket. She started shaking on Thursday, had vomiting and diarrhea, but it didn't last long. She's been eating a little and sometimes gets scared of trucks beeping. What could be causing this and what should I do?
