Our 11-month-old Wheaten Terrier, Rufus, got into some garbage a couple of days ago. He was vomiting about twice a day for 2-3 days and is now super lethargic. He is around 25 lbs and may have ingested a diaper from the garbage. He hasn't vomited in 2 days, is still having bowel movements, eating, and drinking, but is lethargic. Should I seek emergency care for him or wait until the vet opens?

My dog, Harper, aged 1, has diarrhea that started as black/tar-like but is now more watery, possibly with light red spots that might be blood. She is drinking water normally, eating a little, and is generally upbeat. She has not eaten anything unusual recently and is generally very healthy. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 4-year-old Chihuahua, Maddy, has an abscess in the gland near her rectum and is shaking from pain. She is licking and dragging her bottom a lot, and the area is very swollen. What can I do to help her until I can get her to a veterinarian?

My 2-year-old Pit Bull mix named Rosco has a spot on his chin. I first noticed it on Monday, and he hasn't been licking or rubbing the area. What could this spot be, and how should I treat it?

My female Schnauzer, Daisy, was taken to the vet for pancreatitis and was on IV fluids. We just gave her Buprenex for the first time and she’s breathing hard and fast since we gave her the meds at 10 pm. She was also given Cerenia for nausea. What could be causing her rapid breathing and should I be concerned?
