My dog, Oakley, an Australian Shepherd weighing 55 lbs, ate gum containing xylitol, approximately 35mg, between 30 minutes to 12 hours ago.

My 9-month-old dog, Vera, is experiencing consistent diarrhea and vomiting, sometimes not making it to the door in time to be let outside. The vomit is a mix of liquid and food. She may have eaten her food quickly at my parents' house. What could be causing this and what steps should I take?

My 3-year-old Beagle Lab mix, Karen, has developed a rash on her stomach and legs that is warm to the touch. She has been itching recently, and we are sure it isn't fleas. She also overproduces yeast. What could be causing the rash and what can I do to help her?

My dog, a 5-month-old lab weighing 35 lbs, ripped open a Tougher Than Tom's Mouse pouch containing essential oils and calcium carbonate. The pouch was still mostly full, but some contents were spilled on the floor. The dog had just eaten dinner and a treat before this incident. What should I do, and is there any risk of toxicity?

My senior dog, Bernie, who has gastro problems, ate about 3 cups of unbleached raw flour. He seems fine but I'm nervous. He's on a chicken and rice diet and taking FortiFlora and Flagyl. What should I do?
