My 14-year-old 10lb Poodle, Charlie, acts like he is starving all the time. This has been a concern for about a year. He had his yearly check-up and shots last week, and he eats the same amount as always. He has cataracts. What could be causing this and what should I check?

My Siberian Husky, Trooper, ate a chicken and rib bone last night and is now lethargic, crying, and showing signs of pain around his rib cage. He has not vomited, but he is not drinking water and has been trembling. What should I do?

We just got home from a week-long trip and noticed that our dog, Milo, a 5-year-old Jack Russell Beagle mix, ate moldy food from his bowl. He didn't show any signs of illness before we left, and he's up to date on all core vaccines and on heartworm prevention. Should we take him to an emergency vet?

My dog ate a small amount of the lantana plant 5 minutes ago. She weighs 43 pounds and just ate dinner. She hasn't vomited since eating the plant. What should I do?

My 10-year-old dog, Blitz, has developed a deep, honking cough, a stuffed nose, and keeps gagging. He has been eating and drinking normally, but has been licking his front paws. He also had diarrhea for about 5-6 days after staying with a friend who smokes. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I gave both dogs Benadryl for allergies, and one dog, weighing 33 pounds, accidentally got 3 tablets (25mg each) because she stole the pill pocket. The dog was bitten by a bug around her eye. What should I do about the accidental overdose?
