My two dogs, a golden retriever and a corgi, ate some raw potatoes while I was at work. I'm not sure of their exact weights or how much each ate, but I estimate about one whole potato was consumed. Neither has vomited, and they ate their dinner normally. What should I do?

My 40 lb, 11-month-old mutt named Juno ate some lily flower petals and has vomited three times this evening. She has a history of heartworms and received her second and third shots last week. What should I do?

We are fostering a 1 1/2-year-old dog named Ruby who was scratching a lot. The vet prescribed small blue pills and antibiotics. The scratching has stopped, but she has started wetting her bed and urinating on other beds. Could this be related to a urinary tract/bladder infection from the antibiotics, stress, or something else? Additionally, the previous owner mentioned Ruby has been re-homed 11 times, and the vet gave us a large box of antibiotics without a stop date.

My dog, Hepburn, a 7-month-old Portuguese Water Dog weighing 32 lbs, chewed an aluminum soda can to shreds but I don't know if she ingested any. Should I take her to a hospital? She has not vomited and her behavior seems normal.

My dog, Ron Weasley, has conjunctivitis with swollen eyes and greenish-yellow discharge. He is six months old, weighs 36 pounds, and has no known underlying medical problems. He has been itchy since we got him, suggesting possible allergies. What should I do to treat his conjunctivitis?

My 8-year-old boxer, Bruno, seems to be in pain after over-playing at the dog park. He is hesitant to walk down stairs, not eating, and prefers sitting upright. He tenses up when I touch his back. What could be causing his discomfort and what steps should I take to help him?
