My 4-month-old dog, Ginger, who weighs about 40 lbs, ate some bad chicken and has been vomiting water multiple times. She has been drinking a lot of water and has bloating in her stomach. Her sibling from the same litter recently died under similar circumstances. Neither dog has been vaccinated for parvovirus. What should I do to help Ginger and what are the next steps?

My dog was given 2 doses of his Prozac 10mg tonight about an hour apart. He weighs 18.5 lbs. I was not home earlier so another family member gave him his medication and I didn’t realize it and got home and gave it to him. I’m just worried that 20mg in the same night is too much. He seems fine now but I only gave him the 2nd dose a little bit ago.

My 8-week-old Poochon puppy, Cooper, is not eating, has been experiencing diarrhea and vomiting, and has low energy. He had a long car ride and has not eaten or drunk water on his own for 24 hours. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, Max, was attacked by a larger dog and initially seemed fine, but several hours later, he can't get up and yelps in pain when touched. He is still eating and drinking but only if food and water are brought to him. What could be causing this and what should I do?
