My dog, Fonzie, a 1 1/2-year-old, just had a seizure. It lasted about 2-3 minutes, and he was thrashing, foaming at the mouth, and accidentally peed.

My dog, Bert, had blood in his stool after receiving a heartworm injection. He is a rescue with a history of abuse, making him extremely fearful of vets and separation. We are worried about causing him distress if we bring him back to the vet. What should we do to manage this at home?

My 50 lb dog ate approximately 225 mg of Proin about 7 hours ago. His pupils are dilated, drooling, and appears restless but his pulse is steady at 80's to 90's and alert. What should I do and what are the potential effects of this overdose?

My dog, Schnaka, a 14-year-old cocker schnauzer weighing 32 lbs, ate a small piece of cotton underwear (2 by 5 inches) without elastic. I am on vacation and a vet is not easily accessible. What can I do to help him pass it safely?
