My large breed dog, Apache, had a raw meat-like bowel movement that was mucusy. He's eating and drinking normally and has been playing normally this evening. He went to the vet last month for diarrhea and a check-up and takes phenobarbital 2x a day for epilepsy. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog Ranger, a 2-year-old yellow lab weighing 80 pounds, ate a small piece of blanket that is now protruding from his anus. I tried to pull it out but he wouldn't let me, and my vet appointment is for tomorrow morning. What should I do in the meantime?

We have a new pup named Fire, who came home from the shelter 2 days ago after being spayed. She was given special medicine for diarrhea and 2 days' worth of food. She loved and consumed all of her new food but later vomited and developed liquid diarrhea. She is now shaking, sleeping, and in and out of sleep due to the diarrhea. What should I do as a rookie mom?

My 5-year-old dog, Gizmo, has had occasional uncontrollable diarrhea and vomiting for the past few days. His bowel movement was black the first day but has been tan since. He has energy and is running around, but we are concerned because there has been a large amount of melting salts in our apartment, and we suspect he might be ingesting it. What could be causing his symptoms and what can we do to help him?

We had our house treated for bedbugs today. There were drips left on the floor by the mister that he was using. I didn’t realize that and I think one of my dogs may have licked some. There were tongue lick marks on the floor near some of the drops that I hadn’t seen. He used Aprehend. He said it was safe for pets and children, but it went on like a must. These were drips of liquid. What should I do about my dogs potentially licking the Aprehend?
