My dog, Nova, a 7 1/2-month-old spayed female, is acting lethargic and has a belly ache. She had a couple of drops of bright red blood in her diarrhea. She has not been vomiting, her tummy is not enlarged, but she was breathing a little faster initially. She does not want to eat or drink, but she is starting to stretch out again. She has no other medical problems and is currently taking doggy diarrhea meds and gabapentin. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, Banu, a 1-year-and-2-month-old female weighing about 35 lbs, ate a peach pit about 45 minutes ago. She's acting normally and not showing any signs of distress. Should I induce vomiting, and what are the potential risks and concerns I should be aware of?

My dog, Trouble, a 10-year-old dachshund mix weighing 22 lbs, ate an unknown quantity (possibly 5 to 10) of 8 in 1 multi-benefit vitamins from Costco. He has vomited a couple of times about 10 minutes ago. What should I do and is there any risk of serious toxicity?

My 2-year-old Chihuahua, Butters, has swollen feet and red eyes, and he has been licking and chewing his feet since yesterday morning. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Bodi, is lethargic, has vomited clear, watery liquid twice, and has urinated in multiple spots. He also ate a little different kibble today but nothing he hasn't had before. He might have eaten something unusual, possibly a lot of treats or a clothing item. His stool was solid but now contains blood. How should I handle this situation, and when should I take him to a clinic?

My almost 5-month-old Miniature Poodle puppy, Rosie, bites my hands and feet and sometimes attacks my legs when I walk. This behavior started around 3 months old and has worsened. I have tried diverting her attention with toys and hitting her nose gently, but it hasn't worked. Rosie has had 3 training sessions with a reputable trainer, but the trainer is expensive and I can't afford more sessions. How can I address this behavior effectively?
