My dog, Pepper, vomited twice yesterday and has decreased energy. She hasn't been fed since the vomiting and has been offered water. She also had an accident with urine today. What can we give her and what should we look out for that would make a vet visit more urgent?

My 15lb dog, Lola, is scratching her armpits a lot. She scooted once last week and vomited a little yellow bile a few times the week before, but hasn't done either since. She eats table scraps and is otherwise healthy and happy. What could be causing the scratching, and are the previous symptoms related?

My Rottweiler, Aldo, has a swollen left front leg that started on Wednesday. The vet took an X-ray, which showed no bone issues, and conducted a comprehensive chemistry and complete blood count, which also showed no significant issues except for slightly high protein. The swelling has worsened, extending from the elbow to the foot and possibly into the chest. Aldo is in pain, and his saliva is slimy and cloudy. The vet prescribed Cephalexin, and Aldo had recently started Previcox for stiffness. What could be causing the swelling, and what further steps should be taken?

My 15 1/2-year-old dog, Hope, was diagnosed with metastatic neoplasia. She has a lump on her side that recently became an open wound due to her licking. She also has dementia and has been having accidents in the house. What is the prognosis for her condition, and is there any way to know how long she has had this condition? Additionally, is she currently in pain, and what treatments are available?
