I just got a new dog who is about a year old. He was given to me in front of Safeway, and shortly after, he started showing signs of distress, including diarrhea and a limp. An emergency vet clinic in Corvallis, Oregon, diagnosed him with a heart murmur and found illegal substances (heroin and meth) in his system. What can I do to ensure his well-being, especially concerning the heart murmur?

I have a 7-year-old Yorkie Poo named Simi who hasn't pooped since Saturday and is constantly crying. What could be causing this and should I take her to a vet?

My dog ate a bone and now can't bark. She weighs 45 pounds, is named Penelope, and is 8 years old. She ate the bone yesterday and has been outside most of the day. I don't know if she has thrown up since then. What should I do?

My dog, Benjamin, is barely eating, shaking, and doesn't want to stand. He has been like this for the last three days, with decreased energy and seems to be in pain. He is a Pitbull, about three or four years old, and mostly stays in the room with my son. He hasn't gotten into anything he shouldn't have, and there were no medications around. His stomach doesn't seem bloated, and he wasn't uncomfortable when pressed. What should I do?

My dog, Charlie, a 4-year-old 90 kg dog, ate one grape about 20 minutes ago. He hasn't vomited, and I tried giving him salt to induce vomiting. The vet clinic is closed until 8:30 AM. What should I do, and will Charlie be okay until then?
