My dog, Jaz, has had a bone lodged in her intestines since Wednesday. She stopped eating and became lethargic and dehydrated. I took her to the hospital on Saturday for hydration, but I cannot afford a $1000 surgery. I am looking for low-cost options or information on where to take her if I need to give her up. What should I do?

My 9-week-old puppy, Taco, got his paw pinched under the balcony door and was limping slightly after. The emergency vet said nothing is broken and gave him painkillers. He's still slightly limping today. Should I take him to our vet for further examination or wait?

My dog, Axle, a 9-year-old rat terrier, has a large, swollen, and red area beside his penis, and another lump has appeared under his jaw. He is neutered. What could these lumps be, and what should I do?

My dog, Yaya, aged 13-14, is panting hard and gasping for air suddenly. She had about 4 rounds of this and now seems to be breathing more heavily than usual. Her teeth are in bad condition and she recently got all her shots. What could be causing this and what should I do?

We have a medium-sized mixed-breed dog, approximately 50 lbs and 8 years old. He started vomiting yesterday night and hasn't eaten anything all day. Today, he can't keep any water down, and we're worried about dehydration. The wait for a vet at the emergency hospital is 7 hours tonight. Should we wait until tomorrow morning, and is there any additional danger because he cannot keep any water down until then?

My puppy, Sage, has a discharge coming from her rectum that smells bad and is clear brownish in color. She also has irritation causing her to circle and bite at her leg, and she's sitting oddly. She was recently prescribed Gabapentin for this issue. What could be causing this and what should I do?
