My dog, Nova, a 7 1/2-month-old spayed female, is acting lethargic and has a belly ache. She had a couple of drops of bright red blood in her diarrhea. She has not been vomiting, her tummy is not enlarged, but she was breathing a little faster initially. She does not want to eat or drink, but she is starting to stretch out again. She has no other medical problems and is currently taking doggy diarrhea meds and gabapentin. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, Banu, a 1-year-and-2-month-old female weighing about 35 lbs, ate a peach pit about 45 minutes ago. She's acting normally and not showing any signs of distress. Should I induce vomiting, and what are the potential risks and concerns I should be aware of?

My dog, Bodi, is lethargic, has vomited clear, watery liquid twice, and has urinated in multiple spots. He also ate a little different kibble today but nothing he hasn't had before. He might have eaten something unusual, possibly a lot of treats or a clothing item. His stool was solid but now contains blood. How should I handle this situation, and when should I take him to a clinic?
