We noticed two bright red spots on our dog's belly/groin area while on vacation by a lake. The spots appeared this morning, and our dog doesn't seem to notice them—no itching or licking, and her behavior is normal. She lies on her back a lot, so we noticed the spots quickly. It's been less than 24 hours. What could these spots be?

My dog, Topaz, an 8-year-old rescue who eats everything, appears to have chewed on and possibly ingested part of a pack of cigarettes over an hour ago. He shows no immediate signs of distress. What should I do?

My dog, Suga Babies, a little over a year old, has had loose, snotty stool and just threw up the chicken and rice I fed her. She acts fine and playful. She hasn't had her shots yet and I just got her a few days ago. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 10-year-old Pomeranian cross, Tika, has been showing signs of lethargy, decreased playfulness, less excitement when I come home, increased sleep, sadness, decreased appetite, difficulty jumping, and occasional accidents. She also yelps in pain when picked up and seems reluctant to go outside. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My two small dogs, Bailey and Annabelle, ate a small portion of Tom cat mouse killer. They weigh 6 lbs each and are almost 8 years old. I'm not sure how much they ate, but it was a tiny edge of a 1x1/2” block. What should I do?

My 14-year-old healthy Chihuahua, Happy Dog, suddenly started screeching for no apparent reason. He's been acting weird, shaking, and screeching even while laying down. I'm worried and considering taking him to the vet, but I'm also afraid they might suggest putting him to sleep due to his age. What could be causing this behavior, and what should I do?
