My 4-year-old French Mastiff, Stallone, suddenly started yelping in pain when he moves. He vomited once yesterday morning but has not eaten or drunk water on his own since, and hasn't pooped in nearly three days despite stool softeners. X-rays show something foreign in his colon near his rectum and signs of hip dysplasia. How long can he go without having a bowel movement before new issues present themselves, and what should I watch for?

I have an almost 2-year-old male English bulldog named Jagger who has been attacking a new 3-month-old female puppy occasionally, despite playing and sharing well most of the time. Jagger also pants excessively and seems stressed. What could be causing these behaviors and what can I do to help him?

My Great Dane mix, a 9-month-old 90-pound pup, appears to be in heat with swollen labia for five days. There is no bleeding or behavior change. What is the fertile window and bleeding window? How can I manage her during this period to prevent mating, and when can she be spayed?

My 15-month-old 70 lb Golden Retriever ate one Levothyroxine 112 pill and two Sertraline 100 pills that my mom dropped. He has been very mellow today. Will these pills hurt him?

My 4-year-old dog, Lilah, has been lethargic, vomiting bile with foam, and experiencing a lack of appetite and energy. She also had a black, runny bowel movement in the house, which is unusual for her. Should I be worried, and what should I do?
