My dog, Rosie, a 9-month-old weighing 10 lbs, is throwing up bone fragments a day after eating cooked bones. The vomit contains liquid and a small amount of foam, but no food except bone fragments.

My dog, Buddy, a 5-year-old Yorkshire Terrier, had diarrhea with red and then black blood in his stool. He is acting normally, playing, eating, and drinking as usual. What could be the cause, and what should I do?

My dog may have eaten some raisins. Do I need to be concerned? The dog is an 11-pound, 8-year-old maltipoo named Chloe. She got into some trail mix about an hour ago and is acting normal without vomiting. What should I do?
