My dog, Penny, a 9-year-old 20-pound dog, threw up in the house about an hour ago, then ate a bunch of grass and threw up again outside. She seems a bit more settled now but is still munching on her hard food and drinking water. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Blue, a 6-year-old pitbull mix, has had a bad rash on his cheek for over a week, which is spreading to other parts of his body, including redness and irritation. He has also developed a small bump between his paws. I've been applying a topical antibacterial spray, but it doesn't seem to be helping. What could be causing this and what can I do to help him?

My dog, a 25-pound terrier mix, accidentally ate a mouse that had been poisoned with bromethalin. The mouse weighed about an ounce. It's been 45 minutes since the incident, and the dog has not vomited nor shown any signs of illness. What should I do?

My 9-month-old French bulldog had its first seizure at 6 pm, lasting 2 minutes, a second seizure at 8:15 pm lasting less than 30 seconds, and a third at 9:50 pm lasting less than 10 seconds. He has never had a seizure before. What should I do?

My 18-month-old German Shepherd, Zeek, tore the tip of his ear during rough play. The bleeding has stopped, and he doesn't seem to be in pain. Should I take him to the emergency vet today, or can I wait until tomorrow?

My 12-year-old dog, weighing 64 lbs, has been scratching her face raw and it’s bleeding, and now she’s chewed a spot on her leg. She is acting normal otherwise, but I noticed this behavior more than usual. She hasn't vomited and there are no changes in her eating, drinking, defecating, or urinating. She was on Advantage flea medication but hasn't had it for about a month. There are no other pets in the household, and she doesn't go to dog parks. What could be causing this and what should I do?
