My 3-year-old Maltipoo is lethargic, not eating or drinking, hasn't pooped in 2 days, and is walking with her tail between her legs and her head hanging low. She sometimes stops and freezes, and has gagged but not vomited. She has vomited a soft treat she was given. She is normally very active but is now showing signs of discomfort. What could be wrong and what should I do?

My 47 lb dog licked a few drops of a margarita that spilled on the ground of a dog-friendly outdoor restaurant. It was just a few drops and I gave her a bowl of water which she drank right after. Is this an amount of alcohol I should be worried about?

My new puppy, Remy, a French bulldog about 15 weeks old, is lethargic, has heavy breathing, black stool, watery eyes, and is not drinking. He usually sits up and cries when I leave, but now he just stays in my arm with nasal breathing. He had some deli turkey during training. What could be wrong and what should I do?

My black Labrador retriever, Otis, is starting to lose fur over the past month. He has been biting at his skin and it’s getting thinner, but I don’t see any fleas on him. His skin is itchy but doesn’t have any bumps. What could be causing this and what can I do to help him?

My 55lb golden retriever, Rosie, ate a lighter about half an hour ago. The lighter fluid was gone, and she ate some of the plastic. She has congenital kidney disease but her bloodwork is normal. She's currently laying down and her tail is wagging. What should I do?

My cat and dog ate the absorbent package inside a tray of raw chicken. The dog is 10.5 lbs, the cat is 17 lbs, and both are acting normal. The packet was possibly silica gel and about 9x3 inches. Not sure which animal ate most. What should I do to ensure they don't develop an intestinal obstruction, and is there a way to induce vomiting if needed?
