My dog, a 15-pound dachshund mix, has developed a sudden, severe irritation on his neck within the last 24 hours. The area is bloody and irritated, and his cone won't stay on due to his thin head.

My 20-pound dog ate half a Pamprin (250mg of Tylenol, 30mg of caffeine, 7.5mg of pyrilamine maleate) 10 minutes ago. Do I need to induce vomiting?

My Pit Bull, Ryder, has been vomiting all day, including his water, and won't eat anything. The vomit started with food and now is just water. He has the run of the yard and could have eaten something unusual. What could be causing this and what should I do?

Our dog, Coco, who is almost 16 years old and has a history of pancreatitis, may have a UTI as she had pinkish urine once this morning and has been peeing a little more than usual. She is still eating and drinking normally, but our vet is closed until tomorrow. Can I give her anything to help her until our vet opens?
