My family's Pitbull, Blue, has started nipping at people during high-energy situations. This behavior, which began early this summer, is not daily but has become more frequent. Given that we have four kids, I'm concerned for their safety and considering rehoming the dog. What could be causing this behavior and are there any alternatives to euthanasia?

My puppy, Jack, was given a bone from our prime rib dinner last night. Now he is throwing up, with mucus and blood in the vomit. He has been acting off all day but has been eating and drinking. What should I do?

I need to put my Lab mix down and I don't have much money. My dog, Lolita Coco, has been suffering from infected kidneys and gallbladder for 2 weeks. She has been throwing up her medication, refusing to eat for 6 days, and has lost a significant amount of weight. She is also stumbling around and seems more tired and in some pain. What options do I have for euthanasia with limited funds?

My pitbull terrier was hit by a car. She is shaking, breathing heavily, has a gash on her head, and cuts on her legs and ear. What should I do, and is it safe to wait until morning to take her to the vet?

Hello, our dog ate some cookies with a chocolate coating that contained Hershey's powder, butter, and sugar. I don't know how much. He vomited last night about 6 to 8 times. The last one was a lot and threw up a lot of the undigested cookie with chocolate and oats. That is how I figured out what was wrong. Also, this was past the two-hour mark that I had been reading about when trying to figure out what to do. After that, I kept an eye on him through the night. Today he is pretty tired and doesn't really want to drink or eat. Has not vomited today. Tried to give him some white rice and also been giving him some Gatorade diluted with water via a straw. His pulse is about 84. He gets up to bark at the door, but not much of anything else. He weighs about 15 lbs. At this point, how long before it is out of his system and how long to know he is okay?
