My 70lb dog, Zeus, chewed up and ingested approximately 90% of a new tube of Orajel 3x, which contains Benzocaine 20%, Menthol 0.26%, and zinc chloride 0.15%. He ingested it about an hour ago, and I induced vomiting with hydrogen peroxide 25 minutes ago. He vomited white foamy vomit followed by dog food, and currently shows no other symptoms except for napping. What should I do?

My dog, Titus, a 4-year-old intact male German Shepherd, has been showing symptoms of a UTI for 3 days, including a longer time to finish urinating and a dripping stream. What should I do, and what could be causing this?

My Golden Doodle, Opal, has an eye that looks like it’s bleeding after a tussle with another dog. There is some swelling and redness. What should I do to treat this at home?

My dog, Scuff, a 6-month-old mini Aussie weighing about 15 pounds, consumed an unknown amount of caffeine pills about 2 hours ago. He has vomited three times and is currently calming down. Should I be concerned about any side effects or further actions I should take?

My dogs just drank bone broth with spices, including garlic, onion, and other ingredients. One dog is 5 pounds and the other is 45 pounds. They haven't vomited, but I'm concerned. What should I do?

Hi, my dog just had about 5 minutes of dry-heaving with no vomit produced. He seemed anxious during that time. He's since stopped, and seems pretty normal; rolled over for pets, and is lying on the couch now. His tummy feels a little full but doesn't seem sensitive or hard. I know dry-heaving can be an emergency, but since he seems OK now, is it OK to monitor him at home? He is 6 years old and a 65 pound mutt.
