My dog, Lucky, a 13-year-old Golden Retriever, has been bleeding from a blister-like wound on her tongue for the past few days. The bleeding is not profuse but there are drops of blood on the floor, and she keeps licking her leg, transferring the blood. We have been softening her dry food by adding water and microwaving it. What could be causing this and what should I do until our vet opens after the holidays?

An 80 lb female boxer named Penny, aged 6 1/2 years, ate a piece of sprouting sweet potato about a couple of hours ago. She now has a stomach ache, has not vomited, and is lying on her bed looking sad. Should we go to an emergency vet clinic?

My 6-month-old Goldendoodle has had diarrhea for over 3 weeks. He was on Purina Sensitive Skin and Stomach food, and we added probiotics and pumpkin, but nothing has helped. He has been tested for parasites and giardia, both of which were negative. We recently moved, and I'm wondering if stress could be a factor. What should I do next?

My 6-year-old Labrador, who had surgery for bloat about a year ago, has vomited twice tonight, the vomit being dark green in color. He is not eating, drinks water, has had a bowel movement, but is acting lethargic and not himself. What could be causing this and what should I do?

We just adopted a puppy named Brumby from the shelter. He has been experiencing green eye discharge, wheezing, and sneezing, but is eating, drinking, and acting normally. He is 8 weeks old and was neutered on Monday. He has also had the Bordetella vaccine. Should we take him to the emergency vet due to these symptoms, or can we wait until our regular vet opens tomorrow?
