Hello, one of my dogs, Iris, a 15-pound, 7-year-old dog, just ate an IKEA tea light candle, metal and all. It happened about 40 minutes ago, and she has not vomited since. She just went out and pooped normally. Is there anything else the vet should know about Iris?

Our 10-year-old Border Terrier, Merrii, occasionally gasps for air as though breathing through the mouth not the nose. There is no cough, and the gasping is spasmodic. Merrii is 6.7 kg, not overweight, and walks 3 to 8 miles a day. What could be causing this and what should we do?

My 15-year-old Chihuahua, Sadie, has been coughing a lot and started running a fever last night. She is drinking water but has little appetite. She has a cyst on her neck scheduled for removal next week and a heart murmur. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do to help her?
