My dog ate a small piece of cake containing sago palm. The cake is made with sugar, butter, eggs, and the sago plant. My dog is around 5 years old, weighs 17-18 kg, and ate a piece of cake that is about 1 inch by 0.5 inch. The cake ingredients include 100 grams of sago, 2 pandan leaves, 50 grams of sugar, 400 milliliters of water, coconut (desiccated or grated), and 1 teaspoon of rose paste extract. My dog vomited about an hour after eating the cake and had heaving afterward but hasn't vomited since. She drank water and ate a treat normally and had slightly soft stool but no blood. Could the vomiting be related to the sago plant cake, or could it be something else? If she's vomited, given the small amount and her size, could she have already passed the danger? What symptoms should we be looking out for?

I have a 5-month-old puppy named Cleopatra who had an ear infection about a week ago and now has odd eye discharge. She also wouldn't stop smacking her lips and drank lots of water last night. What could be wrong with her, and what should I do?

My dog, Ozzie, a 17-year-old neutered mutt, has an intestinal blockage from ingesting parts of a puppy pad. He strains to pass wet poop, has a distended abdomen, and is in pain. He hasn't vomited recently but did a couple of times a week ago. He is on a low-fat diet due to being prone to pancreatitis. What should I do to help him?

My dog, Messi, a 1.5-year-old neutered male, had his whole penis out and was laying lethargically. It has since gone back in, but there seems to be some blood on his skin. What could this be and what should I do?

My dog had an altercation with another dog over a ball this morning and now he won't let us touch the side of his neck. There are no puncture wounds but it looks a bit swollen. How concerned should I be and what should I do?

My goldendoodle, Scooby, has been licking a small lump near his tail and back left leg. The lump is now angry red with a black hole in the center and has drained large amounts of white thick pus. What should I do to treat my dog?
