My dog, Atticus, a 75-pound, 1 year and 5-month-old dog, ate a whole pork femur an hour ago. He has not vomited and I gave him simple rice Chex cereal. How should I monitor him, and what symptoms should I look for to determine if he needs veterinary attention?

My Golden Retriever, Daisy, has not been eating well for three days, is lethargic, has watery eyes, and was breathing heavily last night. She has a Banfield plan but I can’t pay the urgent center fee. What should I do?

My dog, Reno, has left eye discharge, sneezing, and left-sided nasal congestion. This started after receiving his DHPP vaccine and Cytopoint for an ear infection 7 days ago. He has been eating, drinking, and playing normally, but the symptoms have worsened. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My dog Maple Bear, a 75-pound, 5-year-old dog with a history of arthritis, chewed on a toilet bowl cleaner containing hydrogen peroxide over 4 hours ago. She is currently whining and barking, which is unusual for her. Should I take her to the vet, and if not, what should I do?

My Australian Shepherd blue heeler mix, Maggie, has developed a lump in her throat underneath her chin. The lump appeared yesterday and is still there today. It is soft, moves around, and is cool to the touch but seems painful. I am currently out of state and not near my regular vet. What should I do?

My 6-year-old black lab, Maya, is lethargic, dehydrated, and has been vomiting liquidy and foamy substances without food for about 2 days. She drinks water but then vomits it back up. What should I do, and can I wait until the vet opens or should I take her to the nearest ER?
