My dog, Rufus, a 7-year-old, yelps when trying to stand or jump up, but can jump down and walk fine. His tail is limp. What could be causing this and what should I do?

In 2019, Davis Emergency Pet Hospital did not recommend rattlesnake vaccines due to inconclusive data and did not have the vaccine in their formulary. It is now 2023, and I would like to know their current thinking about this. My dog is 4 years old and has had the vaccine for 2 years. I hear rumors that it is not necessary. Should I get her a booster?

My dog, Sadie, a 25-pound, one-year-old dog, ate some kiddy dough earlier today and is now shaking a lot. She vomited last night before eating the dough but has not vomited since. She has been eating and drinking normally today. What should I do?

My dog, Dewey, a 15-month-old weighing 36lbs, rummaged through my purse and chewed a little of a Fluoxetine 40mg pill and possibly got into some Orbit gum containing 0.009 grams of xylitol. He showed no adverse reactions and I tried to induce vomiting with hydrogen peroxide but he didn't throw up. Should I be concerned about any potential harm or symptoms to look out for?
