Our 1-year-old Labrador has been down the beach and appears to have swallowed a lot of water. For the past 4 hours, he has been very lethargic and uninterested in food and water. This is very uncharacteristic for him. What should we do?

We may have given my 12-year-old beagle (26 lbs) a second dose of simplicef, 12 hours apart. He doesn't seem to be having any adverse effects. What should we be concerned about or look for if he reacts poorly? He just had knee and bladder surgery.

My dog yelps every time his snout (nose or front of teeth) are bumped. I see no swelling. Gums look more red than usual around the top front teeth. Though he does not yelp if I put my finger in his mouth and press around that area. What could be causing this pain?

My dog is very sluggish, has thrown up after eating, had diarrhea several times last night, has a hard stomach, looks sick, won't run outside, and is 4 1/2 years old. She started showing symptoms yesterday and often eats toilet paper, which she has not yet pooped out. What could be wrong and what should I do?

My miniature dachshund, weighing about 14 pounds, accidentally consumed 2-3 pills of Rimadyl 25 mg. She has shown symptoms of stomach upset, vomiting, and trembling. We cannot afford to take her to the vet for extensive testing and treatment. What are the short-term and long-term effects of this overdose, and what can we do to manage her condition at home?
