I have an 8-month-old English setter who is usually very active but has barely eaten or drunk for 2 days. She just lays around and seems achy when she gets up. This is the first time she has experienced heat, spending 4 hours in her kennel when it was 85 degrees and the rest of the time in the house at 70 degrees. What could be wrong and what should I do?

My dog chews on wood, but now she has bad diarrhea with spots of blood in it. She is eating and drinking normally, playing, and has all her shots. She is fixed and is 1 and a half. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have a Shih Tzu that has been very withdrawn since this afternoon and had foaming at the mouth. I forced water into his mouth with a dropper. He likes to eat everything and sometimes chews on his plastic toys, which I have thrown away. Could he have eaten or killed a chipmunk and it made him sick?

My 9-year-old female mixed breed has been diagnosed with diabetes. We noticed weight loss, increased thirst, etc., but only recently became alarmed. I'm not sure I can manage insulin shots. Are there other treatment options available that could give her some more time without causing her to suffer?

My 15-year-old mixed breed dog, weighing about 10 pounds, is experiencing spasms that cause her tail to go sideways, barking, whining, and discomfort. I'm unable to afford a vet visit and am concerned she might die. What can I do to make her more comfortable?
