My dog, Togo, age 19 months, has been having very loose stools that he cannot hold long enough to get outside. This started 3 days ago, and he had been in the animal emergency hospital the week before with ingestion of a foreign body (plastic). He has been active and eating without any nausea since then. He is currently on a chicken and rice diet with a little bit of Pro Plan kibble added. What can I do to help him until I can reach my vet after the holiday?

My dog, Bailey, a 2-year-old Biewer Terrier, may have Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD) and has lost feeling in his rear right leg 3 days ago. We are on vacation in South Carolina until Wednesday and then have to fly home before we can take him anywhere. What care can I provide for him until we can get him surgery?

My older dog, Mr. Jaxx, ate about 3 oz of chocolate and has thrown up most of it. He is currently quivering and I gave him half a Tums. Should I be concerned about any other symptoms, and is it safe to take him for a walk to help him process the chocolate?
