My 3-year-old mixed poodle, Guinness, was vomiting on Monday and received IV fluids and medication. He seemed fine yesterday but today he refused to eat, is shivering, and has no energy. He doesn't seem to be in pain, but he has a GI issue. His X-ray exam on Monday showed normal results, but his blood test results indicated low protein levels. What should I do to help him, and does he need to fast before an ultrasound?

Guinness's symptoms suggest that there might be a more serious underlying issue, possibly pancreatit...

My pet, a 20 lb dog, might have swallowed or eaten paint. There is paint on his mouth, ear, and paws, but I'm unsure if he actually ingested it. What should I do?

I have a Presa Canario dog named Keeva, aged 5, who has been drooling excessively, especially last night, to the point where her neck and mouth were soaked. She is still eating and drinking water normally, and there is no change in her stool. She does not appear lethargic and her color is good. What could be causing this excessive drooling, and is there anything else I should monitor or check?

My puppy is in pain, whiny, and unable to sleep. She may have ingested a poisonous plant, possibly jade. What can I do to alleviate her symptoms and help her sleep, and how long should it take for her to return to normal?

My dog swallowed a golf ball two days ago. A vet suggested giving him peroxide to induce vomiting, but I'm scared to do this and can't afford a vet visit. My dog is in pain and is showing strange behavior, eating but vomiting if he eats too fast. What should I do?

My 20-pound, 5-month-old dog, Ellie, ate about 1-1.5 cups of mixed nuts consisting of peanuts, cashews, almonds, hazelnuts, pecans, and Brazil nuts overnight. She hasn't vomited since. What should I do?
