My dog, Jersey, a 6-year-old with a history of pancreatitis and recently started on thyroid medication, threw up mostly foam with yellow streaks six times, with the first four being just foam. She won't drink water and is currently resting. What could be causing this and what should I do?

For my diabetic dog, when I get a BG number of 64, the vet tells me that is acceptable, and they only worry when the number is below 50 or there is a change in behavior (lethargy). Yet, I am told by other diabetic 'parents' of dogs in a Facebook forum (ran by vets/specialists) that anything under 70 is worrisome and that brain damage begins when the number falls below 70. Dog had a reading of 67 yesterday, took to vet after giving a little honey, vet got a reading of 135 30 minutes later, telling me anything above 50 is good and she is fine. Lowered vetsulin from 15 to 14 units this morning at 6:00 am with fasting BG of 198. Reading of: 339 at 8 am, 64 at 10 am - gave honey and 1/4 cup WD, 129 at 10:15 - gave another 1/4 cup WD, 402 at 10:30, 319 at 11:30, 538 at 12:30. I guess my question is at what number do you get concerned? Is she truly ok at 64?

My dog has been throwing up since 9:30am (now 3:47pm), first his dog food but since white foam and basic liquid. Not really drinking and only peeing a few drops at a time. He is still walking and responding by tail wagging but feels cold to touch. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My wolfhound, Minnie, has a 6" laceration on her back above her shoulder, likely from a fight with another dog. It's about 4 days old and doesn't look infected. Is it okay to use Fura-Zone on it to help it heal?
