My dog had a packet in his mouth with 20% boric acid. We got most of the packet out of his mouth but there is a possibility he swallowed some. The dog weighs 17 pounds, and the packet is mostly paper with 80% inert material and 20% boric acid. When I opened a package, the powder was mostly in the middle, and he only got a small corner of the pack. It happened 10-15 minutes ago, and he has not thrown up. What should I do?

My 12-year-old dog, Buddy, is not himself. He ate some grass yesterday, vomited a little, is not eating today, and is not walking normally. He grunts when petted and seems very tired. Could this be related to kidney failure or possibly due to eating a mushroom?

My 6-month-old, 50-lb dog named Kate just ate a sock a few minutes ago. She hasn't vomited yet and just ate a treat and drank some water. What should I do to help her vomit the sock up, and what are the best care instructions afterward if she does vomit?

My dog, a 44 lbs male basset hound named Remi who is 10 months old, may have ingested Clorox disinfectant wipes or drank some of the liquid 1.5 hours ago. He has shown no abnormal symptoms so far and is currently sleeping normally. Should I expect any symptoms to appear soon, or is it possible he won't have any problems?

My 1-year-old 5lb Chihuahua, Dexter, has been experiencing diarrhea and vomiting for three days, and now he is barely walking as if his joints hurt. The vomiting has stopped, but he is still unwell. What could be causing his symptoms, and what should I do to help him?
