My 14-pound Pomeranian, Lexi, ate duck poop from neighbors' unkept ducks, which previously caused a bacterial infection. She was outside unsupervised for about 20 minutes and likely ate a small amount. What should I do to ensure her safety, and is there any proactive action I should take?

Should I be able to see my dog's floating rib, and is it okay to mix his current diet with an older kibble for training purposes?

My 10-year-old dog, Brutus, had his shots today and is now having difficulty walking and hasn't eaten as usual. He has never had a reaction to shots before. Is this situation urgent, and what can I do to help him?

My 8-week-old mini cockapoo has started having blood in his stool, along with loose mucus-like poop and increased frequency of bowel movements. He has a good appetite but has been drinking less water. He recently switched to wet food and then a mix of wet and dry food. What should my concern be, and what steps should I take until the vet is available?

We have a 3.5-year-old Siberian Husky named Nova who has been experiencing a lack of appetite for solid foods, diarrhea, and a bump on her nose for about a month. She has been more lethargic and prefers to eat chicken and rice or human food. We dewormed her and noticed white worms in her stool, but haven't done the next dose yet. What could be causing these issues and what should we do?

My puppy, Sienna, has a golf ball size knot at the injection site on her back hind thigh after receiving Nobivac canine DAPPvL4. She whines when the area is touched. Should she be seen by an emergency vet, and is there anything I can do to help with the localized reaction?
