Our normally active 5-month-old papillon started whining about 1.5 hours after we all went to bed. He looked sick, was drooling a little, and instead of running around, he would walk around and then sit on his hind legs. Then he had one episode of projectile vomiting. Earlier in the evening, my 8-year-old was carrying him and commented about hearing water gurgling in his stomach as she held him. He did get out of his crate tonight and wandered through the house. I worry about him eating chocolate but haven't seen any on the floor. I worry about bowel obstruction. What could be causing his symptoms and what should be done?

I have a golden retriever with limber tail. He screams when I touch about 2 inches after the base of the tail. The symptoms appeared after over excitement when he saw a friend. Is it okay to wait 1 week to see if the pain is gone? My dog is already taking anti-inflammatory pills for a wound in his paw.

My dog was due for a heat cycle a few weeks ago. She started whining and had a gush of bright blood. We have had her for 4 years and this has never happened. She has barely had any blood since. Is this normal, and should I take her to the vet?

How do I get my 100 lb dog to take a Comfortis pill when he locks up his jaw and refuses to eat anything that has the pill, even when disguised in various foods?

My 6-month-old puppy has eaten some of a small sucker from a cycad palm and has vomited approximately 12 times in about 2 hours. How do I help her?

My 2 dogs may have ingested Phenibut, and I need to know if it is safe for them or if I need to induce vomiting. They are a 9-month-old female and a 1.5-year-old male, both pit/pit mixes weighing 40lbs and 70lbs respectively. The Phenibut was in a sealed container that they punctured, and I'm unsure of the amount ingested. What should I do?
