My Shipoo got into some onion broth and is now throwing up, lethargic, and shaking. She weighs 12 lbs and licked the bowl clean, so I'm unsure of the exact amount she consumed. She's been vomiting off and on all day. Her name is * * and she is 2.5 years old. How should I handle this situation?

Since it's too late to induce vomiting, the best course of action is to let her fast for 12-24 hours...

My 120lb dog was mistakenly given 1 tablet of 500mg acetaminophen instead of aspirin for a swollen joint. What should I do to mitigate the potential toxicity and manage his joint pain until I can get him to a vet?

My 10lb, 10-year-old Shorkie started coughing intermittently around 5pm, which progressed to a deep dry cough by 9pm. She had heavy coughing fits at 2am that lasted 5-7 minutes each. Her nose is dry, eyes are a little watery, and she hasn't thrown up, but her coughing triggers her gag reflex. Her appetite is fine, and she's drinking more water. Should I wait and see or take her to the vet?

My St. Bernard, Zayne, ate about 7 small cloves of garlic last night and has since thrown up multiple times. What should I do to help him recover and ensure he's not in any danger?

My dog, Petie, a 3-year-old chiweenie, has a swollen area near his anus that just burst. He is not lethargic but has stopped eating for two days, possibly due to anxiety from my husband's absence. He also has a pre-existing eye condition that requires over-the-counter eye drops. What could be causing the swelling, and what should I do to help him?

My dog seems to have scratched his eye, and I think he needs some antibiotics. What should I do?
