I purchased a lemon and lime tree and used organic Espoma citrus tone fertilizer. My dog, Bella, ate a small amount of the fertilizer solution. What are the potential health risks for Bella, and should I take any action?

My 4-year-old dog has been in labor for about 12 hours. In the last two hours, she has become frantic, clingy, and I see very small amounts of dark green mucus and a tiny amount of blood. This is her third litter. Just saw her push uncontrollably for the first time 5 minutes ago. Is this normal or should I be concerned?

My dog stayed at my in-laws' house in a canyon in San Diego. When he came back, his left eye was only about 75% open, his eyelashes were scratched raw from his paw, and his paw was a little red. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Jojo, is having trouble defecating and has experienced diarrhea and vomiting after eating. He is acting normal, has no pre-existing medical conditions, and weighs 15lbs. Last week, he had his teeth cleaned, a couple of teeth pulled, and a wart removed. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My dog has lymphoma and is undergoing the CHOP protocol. Today, I noticed a little jelly-like blood in his stool. My vet checked bilirubin, amylase, and lipase, with lipase being 417 (normal range 0-225). The vet suggested it might be a little pancreatic irritation. My dog has a history of eating foreign objects and has had two GI surgeries to remove blockages. I am worried it might be another blockage. What could be causing the jelly-like blood in his stool, and should I be concerned about the elevated lipase?
