My 5-month-old dog, Weston, who weighs 11.2 pounds, is swallowing hard, gagging, and trying to vomit unsuccessfully. He just ate about a half cup of food 10 minutes ago, but this behavior started before that. He had a normal bowel movement, his breathing is fine, and his gums are a normal pink color. He seems to be in discomfort when he swallows and has been exhibiting strange behavior like running into corners and laying down for a few moments before moving to another spot. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 9-year-old dog, Bill, has had diarrhea for 3 days, his bottom is red, and he's getting weak and skinny fast. Can I give him Pepto Bismol, and what else should I do to help him?

I have a 20-week-old 'bully' pitbull puppy named Gucci. He has been acting strangely by not wanting to leave his bed, avoiding me when I call him, and showing signs of fear. What could be causing this behavior and what can I do to help him?

My 60-pound pitbull, Aidan, ate a small piece of store-bought salmon that had about one clove of minced garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, and Italian seasoning on it. He seems fine and hasn't vomited. What should I do?

My dog has had diarrhea for the last 24 hours, with clear yellow liquid stools that have now become darker and possibly contain blood. She ate some food off the street before I took it away from her. She is a 2-year-old Golden Doodle, eating Fresh Pet dog food and the same dry food as her 5-year-old mother. She is perky and playful, with pink gums. What could be causing this and what should I do?
