My dog, Lucy, a 3-year-old lab and malicious mix, tripped on the stairs and is now dragging her leg, walking on the front of her foot, and panting heavily. She didn't yelp or show signs of pain, and the incident happened about two hours ago. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have a 24 lb Chihuahua named Snickers, 9 years old, with a skin condition. I applied Saratoga ointment containing petrolatum, zinc oxide, acetylated alcohols, beeswax, and eucalyptus, and he licked his leg, vomiting three times. He is now sleeping and snoring. What should I do?

My puppy, Benji, a 6-month-old Dachshund weighing about 10 lbs, swallowed part of the material that covers a tennis ball. He has been progressively tearing and eating it, which might be causing him to have trouble sleeping. What should I do to ensure he's okay, and what are the signs I should watch for that might indicate a more serious issue?

My 10-year-old dog, Duke, has recently stopped wanting to come down the stairs, seems very tired, and threw up thick mucus two days ago. He still eats and drinks well, but I'm concerned about his reluctance to go downstairs. Can I give him pet pain meds, and what could be causing his behavior?

My pet, an Australian Shepherd Lab mix named River, ingested 3 doses of Heartgard in one sitting. He is 36 pounds and ate the brown bars. He is not showing side effects but I just wanted to know if he is okay.

My dog may have ingested some minoxidil from a cotton ball. She didn't swallow the cotton ball but tore it apart. What should I do at home until I can take her to the vet tomorrow?
