Our vet is closed for the holidays and they saw our mini dachshund on Wednesday where they said she pooped all over the place, but hasn't pooped since. She is eating, drinking, and peeing, but no poop. The meds prescribed are Gabapentin, Meloxidyl, and Methocarbamol. Is this concerning, and should we be worried?

My 4.5-year-old black lab, Ruby, vomited her dinner and clear liquid after being left alone for four hours, the longest she has ever been alone. She also vomited clear liquid multiple times and emptied her water bowl. She drank water but vomited it up immediately. She did not sleep on my bed that night and vomited clear liquid again the next morning. I gave her water again and she vomited it within 5 minutes. She weighs 100 pounds and is very attached to me. I found bits of rubber insulation around the door to the garage that she had scratched at and broken off. She is not known for eating non-food items and I think her anxiety is a contributing factor. What should I do to help her and should I take her to the emergency hospital?

My dog, Bruno, a 9-year-old 20lb dog, ate an unknown amount of dark chocolate last night. He vomited the chocolate and foil, and we gave him Pepto Bismol, but he seems shaky. What should I do?

My 15-year-old Yorkie, Sadie, has a benign tumor on her jaw and is currently on Clindamycin. Due to her age, we have opted not to have it surgically removed. She also struggles with walking due to arthritis and has a healthy appetite. What can I use for topical relief to help her?

My dog, Josie, who is 2 years old, has a red lump the size of a nickel on her back leg. The hair is still on it, but the pores are swollen. She is acting normal and the lump doesn't seem to be causing her pain. Should I bring her to an emergency vet or wait until her regular vet is open on Tuesday?
