I have a 6-year-old blue nose pitbull named Moocow who is shaking and hiding in the bathroom. He has a little limp in his left arm, and if we try to move him, he will bite. He also won't eat. What should I do to help him?

My dog, a Great Dane mix named Buck, has been vomiting for several weeks, has gained 20 lbs, is very weak, pants and drools constantly, and has been coughing with a wet cough. He was initially thought to have tick fever and has been on doxycycline for two weeks without improvement. He has also vomited foamy bile and food, and recently spat up green mucus. What could be causing these symptoms and what further tests should be done?

My dog has blood in her urine, is having accidents in the house, not eating or taking treats, and may have ingested a minimal amount of rat poison (bromadiolone). She has a history of UTIs and has started showing symptoms coinciding with the use of rat poison. Additionally, she has started exhibiting weird breathing, described as snorting like a cat coughing up a hairball, which is intermittent.
