My 20 lbs, 8-year-old dog, Ganesha, swallowed a 6-inch long natural dog chew and seems uncomfortable. He hasn't thrown up yet. What should I do to help him, and is it safe to induce vomiting at home?

My dog, Teddy, a 4-year-old, vomited this morning and has since been lethargic, sad, and refusing to eat. He doesn't seem to be in pain. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Shelby, has been throwing up, initially with food and now with white phlegm, not frequently but spread out. She's still able to pee, hasn't had diarrhea for a while, and her stool has been soft. She's 5 1/2 years old and takes medication. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Diego, a 2-year-old cross between a Boerboel and a Labrador, has been showing symptoms of a middle ear infection for a week. Symptoms include bloody crusting in his nose, difficulty breathing, disorientation, off-balance movements, rapid eye movements, and wobbly head and walking. I have been giving him Co-Trimoxazole, Amoxicillin, and Clavulanic Acid, but his condition has worsened. What should I do?

My dog, Lily, is still showing signs of being in heat, with a swollen vagina that has a blackish color. She licks the area and stopped bleeding around last week. What could be the issue, and what should I do?
