My dog, Ravin, ate a flex disc from the bathroom trash. She seems fine but I'm concerned she might have trouble passing it. What should I do and how long will it take for her to pass it?

My dog, JD, an American bulldog/retriever mix weighing about 75 lbs, started limping on his back left leg yesterday and today has his tail tucked, his back curved down, and is not eating much. He doesn't seem to want to go out much and was doing a breathy whine yesterday but not today. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My 1-year-old male dog, Walter, is vomiting, has bright red bloody diarrhea, and a swollen, red/bruised scrotum 12 days post-castration. He has been sick with diarrhea since yesterday evening, and his stools have become increasingly bloody. He hasn't eaten anything unusual and has not been fed for 24 hours but has had unrestricted water intake. What should I do?

Our dog vomited stomach contents, is panting, shaking, and refusing food. He has been drinking a little water but threw up white foamy substance later. What could be causing this and what should we do?
