My dog, Gracie, has been throwing up white and foamy vomit for about an hour. She also had diarrhea today and is lethargic. She is 25 weeks old, has never seen a vet due to financial constraints, and has not been vaccinated. She was given a dewormer a month ago and has been fed Beneful along with occasional table scraps. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, Stance, a 5-year-old intact male, has been yelping when his stomach is touched and has an engorged penis, which is unusual for him. He is also more lethargic than usual and reluctant to walk. We had his anal glands expressed today, but no pain medication was given. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

A 1-year-old chocolate lab named Millie has been diagnosed with intestinal adhesions. She underwent exploratory surgery where the vet attempted to remove one adhesion, but significant bleeding occurred. Millie has a history of straining to void and was spayed two weeks ago. What is the prognosis and treatment options for Millie, and should she be considered for euthanasia due to potential lifelong issues and financial constraints?

The dog is still dragging its back legs. How long will the recovery be and what percentage of recovery can be expected for the rear legs?
