I am dog sitting my son’s dog, Chewbacca Rutka, who is 6 years old and weighs about 20 lbs. He ate 3 chocolate-covered cookies. Last year, he ate an entire bag of Hershey kisses and got very sick. What should I do about this situation?

My dog, Tinkerbell, had her nail clipped too short by groomers, and now it's infected and possibly abscessed. What should I do for home care to avoid stress on my dog before taking her to the vet?

My 65lb German shepherd mix, Maximus, may have ingested my diclofenac tablets. The bottle was open and all but three tablets (75mg) were accounted for. He is acting normal but was sick after dinner. He is still rambunctious and playful but maybe a tad lethargic. When was this? Has he thrown up since ingesting the tablets? Is there anything else the Vet should know?

I have an 8-year-old Chihuahua named Jake who is not wanting to eat, drink, or go out, and just wants to be in his bed. This started yesterday afternoon. He has bad teeth and seems to whine or groan when he changes positions, like he aches. Do I need to take him to a vet?

My 2-year-old golden doodle has been scratching her ear a lot, and it appears to be red. I’m afraid she might have an ear infection. Is there anything I can do for her at home to help clear it up?
