My dog, Max, a 1.5-year-old, has been coughing since Friday. He had kennel cough back in August and it cleared up with antibiotics. I'm worried he has it again. His breathing is normal, but he gets coughing fits if he pants or barks. His appetite is good, and he's eating and drinking as normal. I have some cough suppressants that help a little. Should I take him to the vet tomorrow or an emergency vet today?

My dog, Molly, an 8-year-old Yorkie Maltese mix, suddenly became lethargic, drooling, and won't move. She is acting dazed and flinchy when I reach towards her face. She was fine up to an hour ago, and there are no changes in her appetite. I checked around the house and found no evidence she got into anything unusual. What could be causing this behavior, and what should I do?

My dog, Chipper, had a rough night with clear vomiting that turned blood-tinged, and this morning he's pooping dark red/black blood. He's about 14 pounds, 4 years old, and normally eats Purina One Healthy Weight High Protein Smart Blend. He occasionally gets treats but no table scraps or bones. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have a deer head chihuahua named George who has hurt his leg. His foot and the joint above it are swollen. Can I give him an 81 mg aspirin for pain, and is there anything else the vet should know about his condition?
