My 14-year-old poodle has extreme itching and small black specs (possibly flea debris) all over her body. We gave her a bath, which temporarily reduced the itching, but the specs are back. How can we address this issue, and how long do fleas live off the dog?

The black specs you're seeing are likely flea debris, which indicates a flea infestation even if you...

My 10-year-old Yorkie has been vomiting for about a day. She has nothing in her stomach, so sometimes nothing comes out or it's yellow like bile. She is lethargic and shaking on and off. My toddler throws all of his food on the floor, and though I try my best to not let her eat it, she is way faster than me! Does this sound like food has upset her or something more serious?

What kind of dog is described as having soft white hair with a little bit of wiry peach hair on the back, long legs, and weighing around 13 pounds?

I have two lethargic dogs that have been vomiting for four days, have poor appetite, and are producing foamy emesis. One is a 12 lb schnauzer, 5 years old, and the other is a 15 lb pomeranian mix. I am unable to afford a veterinarian. What can I do to help them?

Our dog, a mutt less than 2 years old, had surgery to get fixed on Thursday and came home on Friday. She has been leashed exercised since then. Today, after eating dinner, she started acting weird, vomited her food, and was stretching her back legs as if something was bothering her. Her stitches seem fine, and she has only had dog food and a couple of treats since her surgery. What could be causing this behavior, and should we be concerned?

My German Shepherd, 1 year 4 months old, is having very runny stool, his stomach is making a lot of noises and he seems a bit unsettled. Is it urgent that I take him to the hospital now, or can I wait until tomorrow? He hasn't eaten his dinner tonight.
