My 10-pound, 1-year-old dog, Dolly, has chewed on a Vyvanse pill, and I don't know how long it's been since she did it, but she's currently whining. She hasn't vomited since chewing the pill, and it still had most of the medication in it, so it's hard to say how much she's had. What should I do?

My dachshund, Ace, has had diarrhea for over 24 hours. I have Imodium but am unsure of the dosage. He started having diarrhea the night before last, possibly due to treats or spicy food given by the grandkids. Ace is a rescue, estimated to be around 9-10 years old, and we started using PetLab dental care in his water 6 days ago. He is not on any other medications or supplements, and while his appetite is slightly down, he is still eating and drinking normally. There is no vomiting, lethargy, or depression, but the grandkids' loud arguing could have upset him. What should I do about the diarrhea and how should I administer Imodium?

My dog, Oliver, a 16-week-old puppy, has been straining to pee since I picked him up from boarding this morning. He initially peed without issue but has since been unable to produce much urine despite trying multiple times. His urine was dark initially but now he can't seem to pee at all. He was playful initially but has become more lethargic. What could be causing this and is it an emergency?
