My corgi, Luna, ate 4-5 red raisins about 10-15 minutes ago. She weighs 25 pounds and is 5.5 years old. She has not vomited and had food within 3 hours prior to eating the raisins. What should I do and what signs should I watch for?

My small dog's penis is swollen and he is licking it very often. I noticed this 3 days ago and there is no unusual smell. He seems a bit more tired than usual, but he is over 12 years old and has 2 dislocated hips. He uses his legs well and eats and drinks normally. What could be causing the swelling and what should I do?

My vet quoted me $10-20k for my Pitbull, Spencer's, spleen removal surgery due to a large mass, blood in urine and poop. Is this quote normal, and is surgery a viable option given his weakened state?

My elderly dog, Elroy, was recently diagnosed with heartworm and started treatment with doxycycline. The vet prescribed 2.5 100 mg tablets twice daily, but I administered 1.5 tablets twice daily as per verbal instructions. Elroy experienced severe diarrhea and nausea. After temporarily discontinuing the medication and feeding him a bland diet of rice and chicken, he seemed to improve. However, when returned to his normal diet, the diarrhea resumed. I am concerned about the dosage being too high and its impact on Elroy's health. What should I do?
