My dogs, a 75 lb lab named Raven and a 60 lb lab named Nellie, ate a 1 lb bag of raisins within the past 2 hours. They also tore open a bag of instant tapioca but didn't appear to have eaten it. What should I do to ensure they don't suffer from potential kidney failure?

My Yorkie, Jax, is acting very scared, won't lay down, and hasn't slept all night. He usually is very active and likes to chew on my fingers, but now he keeps his head up and looks around. I think he may have taken one of my 100 mg Sertraline pills. He weighs only 4 lbs and is about 8 months old. He doesn't have any known allergies or skin issues. What should I do?

My dog, Femke, a 2-year-old female, vomited and is now trying to cough up something, likely wood, after eating tree bark. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I accidentally gave my 12-year-old Shitzu, Tessa, a double dose of omega 3 supplements, and she is now vomiting and has diarrhea. Will this reaction wear off on its own, or should I take her to an emergency vet?

Our 10-year-old Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher mix, Juliette, has had intermittent diarrhea since arriving in Pittsburgh from Chicago one week ago. She has normal stools and energy every other day, but today she is lethargic and has her tail between her legs. She has a normal appetite but has had days when she wasn't hungry during the day but ate well at night. We are concerned about a possible parasite or worm, especially since she walks often in urban parks. She just had a full physical and is up to date on immunizations. How should we proceed with her care during our travel to Philly?
