My 9-month-old Sihtzue/Bishon cross puppy, Murphy Lee, weighs about 14 lbs. He ate one of his bigger chew toys and now, 2 days later, he has only pooped a tiny amount, with blackish-colored nuggets. He has tried to eliminate four times but only produced small amounts. He also seems tired and lethargic today, despite eating breakfast well. Does he have a bowel obstruction?

My dogs, Roxy (5 years, 75 lbs) and Django (75 lbs), got into a bottle of 10 100mg carprofen pills. They seem normal but I'm concerned. What should I do and what symptoms should I watch for?

My 13-year-old female miniature pinscher, Reese, who is diabetic, is vomiting white liquid, has no appetite, is weak, and can barely stand on her own. She recently had a blood sugar level of 152 and was given a half dose of insulin. She also had an episode several weeks ago that the vet suspected could be a stroke or brain tumor. What could be causing her current condition and what should I do?

My 75-pound golden retriever chewed a Jergens lotion bottle. I'm not sure how much he may have eaten, but he seemed fine after eating his dinner and running around the yard. Should I worry?

My dog, Snickers, a nearly 11-year-old Yorkshire Terrier, throws up in the middle of the night. He has no teeth and is fed soft dog food, specifically Natural Balance Chicken and Sweet Potato. He also has ground pumpkin mixed in his food to prevent diarrhea. What could be causing the vomiting and what can I do to help him?

My puppy, Athena, seems to be peeing blood. She was treated for parvo in February and is now around 4 months old. She had diarrhea earlier today but it went away, and she isn't straining. What could be causing this and what should I do?
