We have a new 8-week-old puppy named Rosie who was recently rescued and is being rehabilitated. Today, she ate a whole bowl of our older dog's food and now her tummy looks bloated. She has been acting mostly fine, with a bit of restlessness but is now sleeping. No vomiting or dry heaving, and she had a solid poop recently. We are concerned about bloat and want to know if we should take her to a vet tonight. Rosie weighs 9 pounds and is in the process of being de-wormed.

We have a dog named Rambo who is acting like he is choked on something. He is not drinking or eating, and he is normally very hyper but now just lays around and acts like he is trying to vomit but can't get it up. What can we do?

My dog ate my husband’s marijuana edible treat. Should I be worried? What size is the dog, how much of the marijuana was eaten, and what should I watch for in terms of symptoms?

My dog, Bayliegh, a 4-year-old pit bull, is experiencing full-body twitches, swaying when standing, vomiting, and refusing to drink water. She also has slow eye opening and whole-body twitches when touched. Could she have eaten something unusual or is this a neurological issue? What should I do?

My three-year-old Griffon has been experiencing issues such as a noticeable limp in January, which resolved after rest and medication, and more recently, difficulty jumping and shivering at night. I took her to the vet, who diagnosed grade 3 luxating patellas, which came as a surprise since previous vets had said her patellas were good for her breed. I'm concerned whether this could be intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) instead, as she had previous lumbar pain. What could be causing these symptoms, and how should I proceed?

My dog ate 1 cough drop but threw up as soon as he ate it. The dog weighs 19 lbs, threw up 15 minutes ago, and is named Benji, aged 4. He seems okay. What should I do?
