My dog, Roxy, is a 2-year-old GSP/Husky mix who is overweight. We switched her food to Hill’s weight management, but she refuses to eat it, preferring other foods instead. Her gums bleed when she chews on certain items, and she has a vet appointment in two weeks. Should I be concerned about her not eating the new food, and could her dental issues be related?

My dog, Jack, a 10-month-old, vomited twice this morning and was fine all day, but has now vomited four times in the past hour and a half. The vomit is liquidy with food in it. Jack has been in good health and has no significant history of disease. What could be causing this and what should I do?

We just acquired two rescue dogs who have been fostered together. The boxer mix, Lola, started coughing, gagging, and coughing up a little sputum. She is about 2-3 years old, eating and drinking okay. If contagious, we also have a 16-year-old retriever mix and a 1-year-old hound mix to worry about. Is it kennel cough?

My 8-week-old Teacup Chihuahua puppy, Lucy, swallowed a pea-sized cap from a needle about 30 minutes ago. She weighs about 2 pounds and is currently acting fine. Should I be concerned, and what should I do?
