My 5-month-old golden retriever puppy, Betty, had an allergic reaction causing swelling around her left eye, nose, and mouth. The vet gave her Benadryl and added a steroid, but she has thrown up both medications. The vomit was mostly food with a little foam and liquid. The vet suspects the reaction was from eating a spider or bug, and the vomiting started after the steroid. Betty also had redness in her ears, they were warm to the touch, and she had a high temperature but not quite a fever. What should I do to help Betty with her symptoms and prevent further vomiting?

My dog, a 2-year-old Half Shiba Inu mix weighing approximately 20-21 lbs, was given a few slices of prosciutto last night. He has been vomiting, with the first few times containing the prosciutto and later foam and brown liquid, sometimes pink. He has also had soft stools and appears lethargic. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My rescue dog, Rosie, who is about 10 years old, is peeing a little blood. She is eating and sleeping fine, and she seems her usual self, but she did pee on the bed yesterday, which she never has before. What could be causing this and what should I do?

What do I get to treat a hotspot on my Siberian Husky, Loki, who is 11 years old and weighs 56lbs? The hotspot was just found this morning, it's red and irritated but doesn't seem to have any pus. Loki has been licking it, so we have put a cone on him. He takes Incurin for post-operation incontinence.

My dog, Stormy, has been showing signs of distress for 7 hours. She is stiff, flinches a lot, hyper alert, unstable on her feet, and refuses to eat or drink. I tried giving her Benadryl, but she vomited it up. I also applied calming lavender oil to her neck. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
