My 3-month-old dog, Boomer, has been pooping a lot, hasn't eaten today, but is still playful. He wants to lay down more and hasn't shown any signs of pain. He hasn't had any water today except a little this morning and hasn't vomited. He was adopted on January 10, 2021, and eats Puppy Iams and small biscuits. What could be the issue and what should I do?

The primary concern for Boomer could be parvovirus, especially since he hasn't received any vaccines...

My dog, Bella Rhina, born on 12/5/2011, has little red spots like blood on the nipple of her teat. She is spayed, has had all her teeth removed except the canines, is allergic to fleas and has skin allergies. She also started licking her paws when I changed her diet to one without by-products and freeze-dried food. What could be causing these spots and should I be concerned?

My dog, Beaux, is shaking a lot. Earlier he threw up and was panting a lot but those symptoms have subsided. Now he is just shaking slightly while laying with me. He was refusing treats but accepted them and was interested in our dinner. The vomit was more liquidy and did not contain food. He has been lethargic but was excited to go for a walk. He is 1 year old and has not eaten anything unusual that we noticed. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Pica, has developed extreme anxiety about loud noises and storms. She has been on doggy lorazepam before we owned her, and I’m wondering if I need to get it for her for storms and the construction on our street. I’ve tried a thunder jacket, calming treats, and nothing is working. What should I do?

My dog, Niko, a 3-4 year old rescue weighing around 45 lbs, ingested a 2g melatonin pill with xylitol as the first ingredient. What should I do to ensure his safety and prevent any potential toxicity?

My dog, Tesla, ate at least one Oregon white truffle mushroom about 45 minutes ago. She has thrown up since then. What should I do if there is no vet available within 2 hours, and what precautions should I take in case she becomes very sick?
