My dog, Triska, has had diarrhea for a day. She is a puppy who recently had her teeth brushed with toothpaste containing sorbitol, and she also picks up leaves, branches, and moss. She is not showing any signs of pain, is eating normally, and is acting playful. What could be causing her diarrhea and what can I do to help her?

My 2-year-old whippet dog, weighing 25 lbs, ate a tiny piece of onion, about half the size of a small pea. She has not vomited and it was ingested just now. Is this a cause for concern, and should I induce vomiting?

I have a 16-year-old black lab with severe anxiety and cognitive decline. She walks around without resting, shakes from exhaustion, and has difficulty sleeping and eating. She also seems to be in pain, possibly due to hip issues. What can I do to help her, especially since vet appointments are not readily available?

My dog, Hazel, is wheezing/coughing almost every time she breathes, attempts to throw up but nothing comes up, and has slightly pale gums. She is 11 months old and may have chewed on the outer layer of a tennis ball toy. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog Rooper, a 6-month-old puppy, has had runny and slimy diarrhea for about 3 days, coinciding with him ingesting vomit from outside. He had giardia a few months ago and did not have a fecal sample afterward to confirm he was free of it. His puppy shots are up to date. What could be causing his diarrhea, and what steps should I take to help him?
