My five-month-old puppy, Minnie Jewell, chewed the corner of a rubber mat and some leaves from a Helleborus plant. She has been vomiting, with a lot of rubber pieces in her vomit, but no visible plant leaves. I am concerned about the toxicity of the plant and the impact of the rubber mat on her health.

My dog, Kida, a 2-year-old 105lb Great Dane, is constantly breathing heavily as if she just ran for an hour, even though she has been laying on the couch for the past 2 hours. Her appetite has been fine, possibly even more than usual, and her stool appears normal. Could she have eaten something unusual? What could be causing this heavy breathing, and what should I do?

My 9-year-old German Shepherd, Maybelline, is drinking a lot of water, not eating much, and is exhausted halfway up the stairs due to pain from arthritis in her hips. She was a rescue and has been showing these symptoms for about a week. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

Our dachshund got into some red licorice (Twizzlers). How serious is this for a 23-pound, 5-year-old dachshund named Emmy, who has not vomited since eating the licorice about 15 minutes ago? There is no open clinic within 50 miles.

My almost 12-week-old Vizsla puppy, Archer, ate some Kinetic sand. I don't think it was a large amount. Is there a way to ensure it passes through his digestive system without getting stuck?
