I am watching two dogs for a friend. One dog is a 10 lb Pekingese female and the other is a 40 lb Australian Shepherd/Lab mix female.

My labrador was sniffing in an NYC flower garden where there might be rat poison. I'm not sure if she ate any, but she hasn't vomited. What should I do?

My dog ate a peach pit over a week ago. She's been having consistent bowel movements but recently developed diarrhea and has been vomiting about 2 tablespoons every couple of days. She otherwise acts completely normal. Should I be concerned about an internal blockage?

My dog had a decreased ALP, slightly increased MPV, and slightly increased basophils on pre-anesthesia work-up. What does that mean and should they have proceeded with the procedure?

My dog, Chipper, a 7-year-old 70-pound dog, ate an 8-ounce piece of old raw chicken that was in the fridge for months. What should I do to ensure he doesn't get sick, and what signs should I look for if he doesn't throw up everything?
