My dog was running to fetch a ball when she yelped and stopped in her tracks. She is showing signs of distress such as slinking, not settling, panting, and shaking. Her belly is tight to the touch but not hot. We are in Colorado, and the temperature is about 6 degrees. What should I do, and is it okay to wait about an hour before seeking veterinary care?

My dog ate a bar of handmade soap containing ingredients such as Coconut Oil, Palm Oil, Safflower Oil, Glycerin, Shea Butter, Purified Water, Sodium Hydroxide, Sorbitol, Sorbitan oleate, Soy bean protein, and Titanium Dioxide. Are any of these ingredients toxic to her (she is 55 pounds), and do we need to induce vomiting?

My Japanese Spitz is 2-3 months old and has become sluggish, vomited his food, and has not eaten for a day. He is weak, keeps sleeping, and drinks a lot of water. What should I do?

I have temporary custody of my adult daughter's 6-year-old small poodle mix. He has shown aggression towards adult male visitors on three occasions by biting/nipping at their shoes/shoe laces, attacking the cuffs of their pants, or barking at them continuously. This behavior only occurs with certain male visitors and not with my husband or other family members. How do I deal with this behavior?

I have an 11-year-old springer spaniel who is struggling with erratic breathing, a distended rib cage, and discomfort. She is pacing for hours, drinking a lot of water, and only wants to lay on her right side. Her gums went white for a few minutes, and she has two benign tumors on her breasts. She is not spayed, and her red blood cell count was slightly low. What could be causing her symptoms, and what should I do to help her?
