My dog, Albert, a 9-year-old German shepherd mix and boxer lab mix, suddenly stopped walking on Saturday morning. He won't eat unless it's people's food, and he's urinating where he's laying. He can sit up like a human but won't stand or bear weight. He will scoot across the floor if called, but only for a short distance and drags his hind legs. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 45lb pitbull may have eaten rat poison (Decon, containing Cholecalciferol). I gave him about two tablespoons of activated charcoal in water, but I'm not sure if it was within the 2-hour window for inducing vomiting. The vitamin K1 I ordered hasn't arrived yet, and there are no vets open near me. It's been about a day and a half since the incident. What should I do?

My dog, Destiny (a 6-month-old chiweenie), was outside and seems to have been hit by something. She is unable to stand straight, won't put pressure on her back hip, has a cut on her lower belly near the back, and showed signs of incontinence. There is a small amount of blood, and she is currently resting in her kennel. What should I do for her?
