My dog, Cooper, a 16-month-old weighing about 60 lbs, has had loose stools with gas and bright red blood in some of it. He has been calmer than usual and has been lying around. I can't say if he has been more or less thirsty, and I'm unsure if he ate anything unusual recently. What should I do, and are there any emergency behaviors I should watch for?

My 5-year-old West Highland White Terrier (westy) is obsessed with light and barks at the light coming in from my windows. This behavior just started a few weeks ago. I give him trazadone and Zylkene. What can be done to help him calm down and stop this behavior?

My grandmother's English Staffy, Elektra, has ongoing skin issues and has recently rapidly lost weight despite being in good spirits. She has lost fur on her face and back legs, and the skin was scabbing but has since stopped due to antibiotics. What could be causing these issues and what steps can be taken to address them?

My dog, Tiger Lily, a 7-month-old, 10-pound dog, possibly ate one grape about an hour ago. She has not vomited and also ate carrots and ice afterward. Should I be concerned, and what should I monitor for?

I accidentally gave my 12-pound, 12-year-old dog, Buddy, double his prescribed dose of Meloxicam (0.5 mL instead of 0.25 mL). He has no known liver or kidney disease and is also taking gabapentin correctly. What should I do, and are there any symptoms I should watch for that would indicate I should take him to the hospital?
