My dog, Josie, a 6-year-old mixed breed weighing 12.5 lbs, ate about 4-5 pieces of dark sweet chocolate (Godiva little hearts) about 4 hours before experiencing diarrhea. She has not vomited and is otherwise acting normal, but she scooted on her butt and the poop is foul-smelling. What should I do?

My dog walked on a newly epoxied garage floor and was cleaned with mineral spirits. After washing his paws with soap and water, he keeps shaking his legs and twitching them when resting, indicating irritation or itching. What should I do?

My 16-week-old, 35 lb Labrador chewed up a Duraflame fire starter cube. I don't think she ingested much of it, but I'm not sure what time she did this today. She drank some water and threw it up, but nothing came up but water. Is this something I need to worry about?

My 11-month-old spayed mixed breed dog, Indy, is bleeding from her vagina in small droplets. There are no visible wounds, but she has been licking the area more than usual. She is urinating normally and acting like herself otherwise. What could be causing this and what should I do?

Our 9-year-old beagle cross, Zane, is experiencing pain in his rear area, difficulty walking, and reluctance to jump or eat from his usual height. He hasn't had any water since yesterday morning, and his nose is warm. He caught four baby rabbits two days ago and had his rabies and distemper shots three days ago. What could be causing his symptoms, and what should we do?

My dog, Murphy, a 7-year-old terrier mix, vomited after possibly eating grass treated with weed killer. He has since calmed down but is not eating. Should I take him to the vet?
