My 55 lb dog, Caldwell, ate a hand-knitted sock (about 12 inches long) last night. I gave him baking soda in water to induce vomiting, but it didn't work. He has a history of eating socks and throwing them up within a day or two, but this time, I'm concerned that the yarn may wrap around his intestines. He vomited undigested dog food this morning but is otherwise not showing signs of distress. What should I do?

I have a 3-year-old Dachshund that started drooling, is struggling to eat, and is drinking more water than usual. What could be causing this and what can I do to help?

My 10-week-old puppy, Monty, a Boston Terrier mixed with Shih Tzu, has light-colored lips, swollen eyes, little bumps near his nose, and his eyes are producing pus. He has also been a bit itchy. I gave him a bath with oatmeal puppy shampoo today. Could this be an allergic reaction from food or fleas? My boyfriend thinks it might be from the food he eats, which is Little Caesar's beef meals, transitioning to lamb and rice-based food. Additionally, I noticed he has glands that feel like round balls under his chin on both sides. Is this related?

My 14-week-old Golden Retriever, Scout, may have ingested Apoquel and Proin intended for another dog. He is panting and uncomfortable when laying down. What are the potential effects of these drugs and what should I do?
