My 3-year-old toy rat terrier, Prince, has been sneezing a lot and has a stuffy nose for about 3-4 days. He has also been licking and biting his feet periodically, which he has done since he came to live with us. He is eating and drinking normally but his appetite is 'so so.' He is due for his vaccinations and the cool air seems to aggravate him. What can I do to help him?

We have a labradoodle named Ash, who is 4 years old and suffers from allergies. He has a small black crusty growth on the base of his lower nipple. Should we be concerned? It looks like it can be removed with water. Additionally, his lower area between his willie and lower belly is usually reddish and itchy. We bathe him with oatmeal and give him allergy medicine, which seems to be working. What should we do about the black crust and any recommendations for his allergies?

My smaller sized dog, Buddy, ate a significant amount of hard plastic from a toy about 10 minutes ago. He has not vomited and is acting normal. Should I induce vomiting, and if so, how should I do it? If inducing vomiting doesn't work, should I take him to a vet immediately?
