My dog, Apple, is peeing blood and whining quite a bit lately. She is almost 3 years old and still pretty active. I changed her dog food back to Benefuls healthy weight. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Ivy, a 3-year-old with a history of a sensitive stomach, has been acting unusually anxious for about a week, scooting frequently, licking her bottom often, and keeping her tail down. She also seems gassy but not passing gas normally. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My 6-month-old Labrador/Beagle mix, Blue, has been vomiting every 5 or 10 minutes for about an hour. The vomit started as solid food and later became foamy. He has all his puppy vaccines and dewormings up to date. He hasn't eaten anything unusual, but I'm concerned about the frequency and nature of his vomiting. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 27 lb puggle, who has had one acute pancreatitis episode 1.5 years ago and is in remission from lymphoma for over a year, just ate a whole garlic bread stick from Olive Garden. She gets monthly chemo treatments for maintenance. Should I be on extra lookout or do something immediately? She did drink a lot of water afterwards. She is on Royal Canin GI food due to the pancreatitis episode.

My 19lb dog, Lulu, who is almost 14 years old and has hypothyroidism, just ate one Reese's Pieces about 15 minutes ago. Is this enough chocolate to affect her?
