My 60 lb dog has eaten a pad containing sodium polyacrylate, which is used under a tray of meat from the grocery. Is this toxic to dogs, and what should I do if she hasn't vomited?

My dog ate part of a leather dog toy and I'm worried he could get an obstruction. He ate about 4 inches of the toy and weighs 115lbs. It happened about 2 hours ago and he hasn't thrown up. His name is Riot and he's 1 year old. He has no health issues and is an XL American Bully.

My dog vomited once and is shaking badly. The vomit contained food. The dog recently changed his food to Iams. His name is Blue, and he is 1 year old. He is also breathing heavily and has a warm nose. What should I do?

My Alaskan Malamute, Boby, avoids sitting down and whines when he does. He is not pooping as often as before, has compact stool, an eye infection, and his tail is down between his legs. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I check or do?

I have questions about my dog's treatment for Dr. Paul Brazzell. My dog, Zeus, has been experiencing serious weight loss, diarrhea, and vomiting. He was diagnosed with Garbage enteritis and prescribed Metronidazole, metoclopramide, fortiflora, and Hills science diet canned food. My main concern is that the vet only performed a fecal exam and did no blood work or other lab tests. Is this normal for such a case? Should additional tests like blood work, urine tests, abdominal X-rays, or an abdominal ultrasound be conducted? Is Garbage enteritis a legitimate diagnosis, and are the prescribed medicines valid for his condition? What food would you recommend for him once the prescribed food is used up, and can you recommend a good food for a healthy Great Pyrenees?
