My 3-year-old Giant Schnauzer has been hacking, not coughing quietly, and drooling excessively in the evenings. His breathing is overall normal, with occasional moments of increased breathing, which is not unusual for him. He has been experiencing this on and off for five days, with a day and a half of normal behavior followed by a reaction. His eating, drinking, barking, and bowel movements are normal. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Onyx, seems to be having stomach pain after switching to a new dog food. She is less active, moaning intermittently, and has foul gas. She pooped tonight, which was smelly but had normal consistency. She is not vomiting, her stomach is soft, and she has no fever. Should I take her to the emergency vet tonight or wait until tomorrow to see her regular vet?

My dog, Nova, an 8-month-old 80-pound dog, ate a whole bottle of ketorolac tromethamine (10mg tablets) a couple of hours ago. She hasn't thrown up yet and didn't eat the plastic. I estimate she ate 10 to 15 of the pills. What should I do?

Hi. I think my dog ingested melatonin and I am not sure how much. Could be as little as she liked a couple to ingested 10-15 5mg tabs. The dog weighs roughly 40-50lbs, found with the bottle about 20 mins ago, and has not thrown up. The dog's name is Sadie and she is 5 1/2 months old. Is there anything else the Vet should know before I connect you?
