My dog, Pixie, is showing signs of pain after an anal expression. She is licking the air, panting, shaking at her backend, holding her tail down, and not wanting to play or walk around. She has had this happen before and was treated for inflammation and nausea. What should I do to help her, and is there anything I can give her for pain and inflammation?

My dog chewed a stem of an elephant ear plant. She's a 55lb black lab, and she chewed off a 2-inch piece of the stem, but didn't ingest it. She was coughing when she came inside, but hasn't vomited since. Should I be worried about her throat swelling, and is this a fatal plant? Should I give her Benadryl or Pepcid, and should she eat after taking the medication?

My 9-month-old dog, Tobey, hasn't eaten since Friday night, has tried to dry heave and vomit without success, and is only drinking water from my hand. He has plenty of energy but refuses to eat or drink on his own. He had diarrhea last night and has a history of eating things he shouldn't. What could be causing this and what should I do?
