My dog, Frankie, a 9-month-old retriever mix weighing 40 lbs, ate a half bar of oatmeal-based soap from Whole Foods. Is this an issue?

There is no risk of toxicity from the oatmeal-based soap. To help prevent any gastrointestinal upset...

My dog vomited after eating, with undigested food and bloody-tinged mucus. She hasn't vomited in the last 24 hours, is eating a bland diet, drinking water, and peeing, but hasn't pooped since she went all day without eating. I gave her 1/2 tab of a 10mg Pepcid twice. Should I still take her to the vet, and how long should she stay on Pepcid?

My golden retriever, Ella, has an abscess on her ear. I am a nurse and would like to drain this myself if possible. Can I drain this with a sterile needle and syringe?

My 5-month-old dog, Joe, ripped up and possibly ate some of a plastic furniture tarp. I'm not sure how much he actually ate, but it was probably 5 hours ago. What should I do to ensure he's okay and avoid any potential health issues?

My 138 lb 12-year-old German Shepherd has developed lumps and bumps over the years, including a hard round nodule on his rib cage. He has also been wheezing, snoring, and rattling when sleeping, which starts as soon as he puts his head down. I can't afford to take him to the vet due to financial constraints. What could be causing these symptoms, and is there anything I can do to help him at home?

My Chihuahua, Nova, who is about 6 months old, is moving strangely, seems to want to vomit but nothing is coming out, and sometimes her eyes roll back when we try to wake her. We are unsure if she ate anything unusual. What could be wrong and what should we do?
