My dog, a 1.5-year-old Silky Terrier weighing about 10/11lbs, ate a tiny piece of a McDonald's cheeseburger, less than an inch in size, which might have contained a few tiny pieces of onion. I'm concerned about potential health issues from the onion or the fast food's greasiness. Is he likely to be OK?

My 16-week-old Mini Bernedoodle named Schooner had a vaccine around 11:30 today and is now vomiting twice in the last two hours. The vomit is foamy with food, and he wants to eat grass. He might have eaten bugs and played in ground cover. What should I do?

My dachshund chihuahua mix, Benji, has an almost popping noise coming from his top chest or left shoulder area. He is not acting injured and is behaving normally, but he was limping slightly last week. Should I be concerned, and is this an urgent issue?

I am at the Burlington Emergency & Veterinary Services clinic in Vermont with my dog who ingested 10 cherry pits between 1-3 am. The clinic asked me to contact the ASPCA poison hotline to get a case control number so the vet can interface with them. Can I get a case control number through this chat, or do I need to call the poison hotline?

We have 2 dogs, each weighing between 20-30 pounds, and they were each given 1 green grape. We read that grapes are poisonous to dogs. What should we do to ensure their safety, and what are the potential risks and next steps?

My dog ate 3 pieces of rat bait poison. Do I need to take him to the vet now or what should I do?
