My dog is in the first stage of labor and has dark green liquid coming from her vagina. She is not contracting or laboring, just laying there sleeping. I'm worried because I've never had pups before. She's cleaned herself up and is now panting, restless, and up and down, but I haven't seen any visible contractions yet. Is this normal, and what should I do?

My dog, Josie, a 6-year-old mixed breed weighing 12.5 lbs, ate about 4-5 pieces of dark sweet chocolate (Godiva little hearts) about 4 hours before experiencing diarrhea. She has not vomited and is otherwise acting normal, but she scooted on her butt and the poop is foul-smelling. What should I do?

My dog walked on a newly epoxied garage floor and was cleaned with mineral spirits. After washing his paws with soap and water, he keeps shaking his legs and twitching them when resting, indicating irritation or itching. What should I do?

My 16-week-old, 35 lb Labrador chewed up a Duraflame fire starter cube. I don't think she ingested much of it, but I'm not sure what time she did this today. She drank some water and threw it up, but nothing came up but water. Is this something I need to worry about?

My 11-month-old spayed mixed breed dog, Indy, is bleeding from her vagina in small droplets. There are no visible wounds, but she has been licking the area more than usual. She is urinating normally and acting like herself otherwise. What could be causing this and what should I do?
