My beagle Charlie ate part of a plastic wrapper and possibly a paper towel. He did poop this morning, but he won't eat now, his belly is gurgling, and he tried to eat grass this morning, which he hasn't done before. What should I do?

My dog, Bella, a 6-month-old 12-pound dog, just ate a small 3-inch by 3-inch eyeglass cleaning cloth 10 minutes ago. She has a history of eating non-food items, including a sock that was removed by induced vomiting and another that required surgery. What should I do?

Our dog, Kaya, a Brittany, was chewing on a smoked femur bone and then suddenly stopped, whimpered, and her belly became hard. She seemed better after eating a little food but then did it again. This happened several months ago for a night and then she pooped in the morning and was fine. What could be causing this and what should we do?
