My 9-pound, 5-month-old Miniature Schnauzer named Luna ate a piece of random kibble she found on the ground. I tried to induce vomiting with my finger but she didn't throw up.

My 14-year-old dog, Sugar, has been coughing non-stop and very loudly all night. She has a heart issue with a leaky valve diagnosed over a year ago. Her cough is dry and nonproductive. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My Beagle, Cooter, who is 3 years old and weighs 35 lbs 3 oz, ate a 3 oz piece of deer steak with a wooden toothpick about an hour ago. He hasn't vomited. What should I do?

Two of the three dogs started with diarrhea at 1 a.m. and it has lasted off and on for the past eight hours, with one of them also vomiting. The youngest was running around and acting normal, while the older one was more cautious. I'm dogsitting for my daughter for two weeks. What could be causing this and what should I do to help them recover?
