Around 11 this morning, my dog got into my toddler's ibuprofen. I'm not sure how many she ate, but they weren't all gone out of the bottle. She's close to 40 lbs and 1 year old. She's been fine all day but just threw up once. What should I do?

I just adopted a dog named Bella, who is 1 1/2 years old, from a local shelter. She tested negative for heartworm in March and was given a chewable preventative on March 31. The shelter won't provide a prescription for her heartworm preventative, and she has an appointment for a final check at the end of this month. Is it bad if she goes without her heartworm meds for a month? She has had tummy troubles (diarrhea) but it seems to be a food issue, and otherwise, she is active and has a good attitude.

My dog, Rossko, a 2 1/2-year-old Chihuahua mix, is not feeling well. His eyes are droopy, he's sleeping a lot, and he's not his usual self. He just received an allergy shot on Monday. What are the symptoms I need to look out for, and could the allergy shot be the cause?

My dog, Belfi, a 3-year-old mixed breed, has been diagnosed with a liver disorder (AST/GOT 73, ALT/GPT 552) and has been on a treatment regimen including milk thistle, Royal Canin hepatic food, and Orsodiol for about 1.5 months. Recently, she has developed skin issues (black spots and red pimples on her belly) and has been moaning while sleeping. I'm concerned about her health and want to know if the current treatment is appropriate and if there are any additional steps I should take to address her liver and skin issues.

My dog vomited 3 times late last night. The first time was partially undigested food with yellow bile. The other 2 times she vomited frothy mucus. She isn't moving as actively, is quieter, and didn't eat today. She is drinking. What should I do?
