My old dog, Sadie, a 15 1/2-year-old Chihuahua mix, is lying down and raising and lowering her head quickly to the floor while whining. She has been lethargic, has some urine leakage on the bed for a few weeks, is overweight, and has difficulty walking. What could be causing this and what should I do?

Sadie's symptoms suggest she may be in pain or experiencing weakness, likely due to her advanced age...

My dog may have eaten a small section of raisin toast this morning. He weighs 17 lbs and is 13 years old. He has heart issues. What should I monitor for and is there any immediate action needed?

My 6-month-old mini Goldendoodle, Charlie, ate two bandaids and some 4-inch masking tape about 15 minutes ago. Should I call the vet, give him hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting, or wait and see if everything is okay?

My dog, Cyrus, ate a part of a potentially toxic alocasia plant. He was retching but didn't vomit, and now he seems fine. What should I do to ensure he's safe, and how dangerous is this situation?

My dog, Rex, a 5-month-old purebred German Shepherd, is panting excessively when in a comfortable environment and hasn't performed any strenuous activities. This has been going on for the last 3 days, particularly at night, with no vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, or other symptoms. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Maya, got a small scratch on its ear today from a raccoon. She is vaccinated and acting normal. Is there anything I need to do immediately, or is it okay to wait and call the vet in the morning?
