My dog, Teddy, a 2-year-old, has been vomiting mucusy material after eating, and more so in the evening. He has not shown signs of diarrhea. Could he have eaten something unusual? Is this a condition that can wait until morning, or is it urgent? If not, when does it become urgent?

My dog, Korben, a 4-month-old, 8.5-pound puppy, ingested a couple of seeds from a Gold Medallion tree. He is acting normal, but I'm unsure if I should monitor him for 24 hours or seek immediate help to induce vomiting. What should I do?

My dog, Murphy, has severe separation anxiety that has been present since I adopted him 5 weeks ago. He exhibits destructive behavior, has accidents, barks, and shakes when left alone. I've tried crate training, medication (Trazodone and Prozac), exercise, and command training, but the anxiety remains. What else can be done to help Murphy, or is finding him a new home the best option?

My dog, Cookie, a 4-year-old Pekingese, has been coughing for the past 3 days, acting like he's trying to cough up a hairball but nothing is coming up. He seems to be breathing okay but is napping more than usual and not as active. I've been exposed to COVID but am not symptomatic. What could be causing his cough and what should I do?

My 14-year-old Shepherd-Beagle mix, Ripley, woke up with heavy breathing and abdominal contractions, refused to eat, and became lethargic. He has been on Curaflex 2 and Galliprant 100 mg, and recently had a diet change with a new type of dry food. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
