My dog, Buddy, a 2-year-old weighing 46 pounds, has been acting off since yesterday. There were mushrooms outside that are now gone, and I'm not sure if he ate them. He has been isolating himself, threw up, and has diarrhea. How many mushrooms did the dog eat? Do I need to take him to the ER?

Mushrooms are toxic to dogs and can cause severe gastric upset when ingested. Given Buddy's symptoms...

My dog, Paco, a 4-year-old chiweenie, is trembling, lethargic, and has had diarrhea for a few days. His stool is runny, and his abdomen looks slightly fuller than usual. He ate some oatmeal and pork today. Could these symptoms be from a virus, infection, or something he ate? Should I take him to the vet, and if so, what tests might be needed? If I can't afford a vet visit, what home treatments can I try?

My French Bulldog, Paisley, ripped her nail and it's hanging on. She's not bleeding, but she's in pain. Should I take her to an emergency vet now or wait until her regular vet opens in the morning?

My 6-month-old Cockapoo puppy, Kyro, has been vomiting, having diarrhea, and peeing in his crate. The vomit was food-related today, but it was liquidy and foamy two days ago. He has all his vaccinations, no blood in his stool, eats fine but drinks less water, and is still full of energy and alert. What should I do?

I gave my 50-pound, 10-month-old dog 10 mL of children's Benadryl (which contains 12.5 mg/5 mL). Is that safe?

My dog is 69 days pregnant and not in labor. She has been restless and sleeping a lot, and has had mucus from her vulva every time she pees for the past week. What could be the issue, and what should I do?
