My dog, a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd Border Collie mix weighing around 30-40 lbs, got into a bottle of dog aspirin. We don't know how much he ate, but he has vomited about 4 times. He seems relatively normal but is smacking his mouth a lot and has a heart rate of 64 bpm. What should I do to help him and what symptoms should I watch out for?

My 6-month-old golden retriever, Kaia, ingested about 4-5 small fire sparklers (1 inch in size) about 20 minutes ago. She has not vomited and is acting normal. Should I be pushing fluids and monitoring her, or should I take her to the emergency clinic?

I have a new rescue dog named Tillie, who is 2 years old. She is used to being outdoors and may not have developed the muscle strength to hold herself for longer periods. She asks to go out every three to four hours, but shows no other signs of a bladder infection, such as pain when urinating or excessive licking. My insurance for her only kicks in in two weeks. Is it dangerous to wait two weeks to get her tested for a bladder infection?

My 9-year-old German Shepherd, Bear, had a Fibrocartilaginous Embolism in June and has since recovered, but recently started leaking urine when he gets up to go outside. He only leaks a small amount and doesn't do it while sleeping. He has also lost weight, particularly in his back half, and seems weaker. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My Jack Wienee dog, 21/2 years old, suddenly has muscle jerking all over and is lethargic. She may have eaten cat poop with new litter called Pretty Litter. What could be causing this and what should I do?
