She weighs 15 lbs, was wormed at 8 weeks, and was given an over-the-counter generic Pepto Bismol pill. There is no blood in her stool, but she hasn't eaten or drunk anything today. What could be causing her diarrhea and what steps should I take to help her?

My 8-month-old puppy licked a plastic bottle containing petroleum distillate, and I gave her warm milk and bread. She seems okay so far. Should I worry?

My dog had become impacted due to hair around his anus. A vet treated the situation by cutting away the hair, but did nothing for the wound itself. Now my dog is in pain and it is the weekend with no vet available. What can I do to alleviate his pain (difficulty sitting down, trembling with movement)?
