My dog just ate homemade sugar scrub containing coconut oil, olive oil, sugar, and orange essential oil. She's a 7lb chiweenie and probably ate about a tablespoon's worth before I caught her. Is she going to be okay?

My 2-year-old dog, Scrappy, started limping on his back leg yesterday and now won't move or eat. He hasn't gone to the bathroom today but has eaten and drank. He lets us touch his paw and doesn't seem to be in pain. What could be causing this and what can I do at home until I can afford to take him to the vet?

My dog, a Golden Retriever-St. Bernard-Husky mix named Bambam, has been experiencing diarrhea and shaking for a few days, along with vomiting and a reduced appetite. He hasn't been examined yet, and he threw up hair today. What should I do for him at home, and is there a specific laxative I should use for his hairball issue?
