My 8-week-old dog, Cholula, weighing 5 kilos, had a black nightshade stem in her mouth. I don't think she ate any of the plant, but it was in her mouth for a short time. She currently has Giardia. What should I monitor for and what actions should I take?

My dog, Asa, a 17-month-old, has been experiencing uncontrollable diarrhea for about 3 hours. She has not vomited and has no control over her bowel movements. There has been no change in her diet, but she might have eaten something unusual in the backyard. She was recently spayed and was on medication (Gabapentin, carprofen, and trazadone) until 2/8. She has never been dewormed and her gums are normal in color and somewhat moist. What could be causing her diarrhea and what should I do?

Is the Instinct Raw food from Instinct suitable for my 10-year-old Great Pyrenees mix, Isaac, who is allergic to chicken and grains and has digestive issues? Can it provide the necessary nutrients, vitamins, and is it affordable?

My dog, a 10-month-old weighing 30-35 pounds, ripped up a bottle of Ajax powder cleaner. I'm unsure if she ate any of it. How can I determine if she did, and if so, what actions should I take to ensure her safety?

My 5-year-old lab pit mix dog, Daisy, started whining and wincing in pain around her ribs tonight. She winces when she walks, eats and drinks normally, but cries when she moves. She has not had any known injuries and was last seen by a vet about a year ago. What could be causing her pain and what should I do?

My dog, Lucy, ate 13 Hershey's kisses, foil and all, about 3-4 hours ago. She weighs 40 pounds, is 9.5 years old, and is generally healthy with no chronic diseases. She hasn't vomited and doesn't appear to be in distress. What should I do?
