My 6-year-old dog, Lulu, has been vomiting at least 10 times over the past two days. She weighs 70 lbs and has a normal appetite but was fed a meal of white rice, peas, carrots, and beef broth. She was on NSAIDs for 10 days about a month ago for a sprained leg, which is now about 90% better but still causes discomfort when running. What could be causing her vomiting and what should I do?

My dog, Atticus, age 7, almost 8, threw up bright red with food in it, which was not liquidy but mucusy. He has not eaten anything unusual, and I cannot find anything in his vomit. Is this a cause for concern, and what should I watch out for until I can get him to a vet?

My 5 and 1/2 month old Whippet ingested a part of a Bird of Paradise plant. I administered Nature's Way Activated Charcoal shortly after. What should I look for in terms of toxicity signs, and how effective is the charcoal in mitigating the plant's toxicity?

My dog, Bertha, age 8, has a big swollen bump on her paw that I just noticed. I'm not sure if it needs immediate attention or if it can wait until tomorrow. What should I do?

My dog, Cookie, has had diarrhea for two weeks, was treated with metronidazole and dewormer, but symptoms returned. She has a history of pancreatitis and gall bladder surgery. She has been given omeprazole and cerenia, but her appetite is still low, and her stomach is gassy. Her stool has not been examined, and she has been diagnosed with pancreatitis. Could it still be a bacterial infection, and should her stool be examined again? What else can be done to help her recover?

I gave my dog, Duncan, Levetiracitum two hours early, and now he's very sleepy. Is this normal, and could it be harmful?
