My dog, Walter, a 1-year-7-month-old, has been experiencing severe vomiting and diarrhea for the past 24 hours. The vomit started as undigested food but has since turned into foul-smelling, clear liquid. He has had 7-10 episodes of vomiting and 2 episodes of clear/light brown liquid diarrhea. Walter is more lethargic but still responsive, and he cannot tolerate drinking water without vomiting. His gums are slightly tacky but still pink, and his nose is not as wet as normal but moist when active. I administered 400ml of 0.9% NS subcutaneously to help mitigate dehydration. What else can be done to help Walter?

My 11-month-old Pitbull, Valley, has blood in her urine. She also had diarrhea this morning. She just had her first heat cycle in October, which did not last long. What could be the cause, and what should I do?

My dog, a German Shepherd turning 2 years old, is not eating consistently and has diarrhea when eating chicken or certain dog treats. He is currently on a beef diet mixed with baby food and enjoys Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Gel Canned Dog Food but can only get it with a prescription that is no longer being approved. What can I do to help my dog's eating and digestive issues?

My dog, Daisy, a 4-year-old, has had blood in her urine twice now. The first time, she was prescribed antibiotics by her vet, which seemed to clear it up, but it has returned. She doesn't seem to be in pain, is urinating normally, and is acting completely normal otherwise. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 13-year-old dog, Coco, had her anal glands expressed yesterday, and the procedure seemed rough, causing her pain and inflammation with some light red blood. She is eating, drinking, and urinating normally but has not pooped since the procedure. How can I relieve her pain and prevent infection at home over the weekend?
