Raw dumplings can cause gut discomfort, indigestion, and bacterial infection. The thick skin is hard to digest; raw filling's starch and protein are undigested; and bacteria like Salmonella or E. coli in the filling can cause gut inflammation.

My cat vomits and has diarrhea about every two weeks; what should I do? (British Shorthair)
Chronic vomiting and diarrhea need a cause found; common causes are internal parasites, irregular diet or indigestion, food poisoning, and gastroenteritis. Get a fecal test, deworm monthly, fast half a day during episodes, and see a vet if no improvement.
My new dog arrived today, vomited three times after sugar water, and will not eat kibble; what is wrong?
A new dog vomiting and not eating may be a sick puppy from a market (distemper, parvo, corona) or parasites, or stress-induced acute gastritis. Fast half a day; if no more vomiting, give gut meds and probiotics, and see a vet if it worsens.

How long after a walk should I feed my dog?
Feed about half an hour after returning from a walk. Ideally walk the dog half an hour after meals to aid digestion and elimination. If not fed before the walk, let it rest half an hour, since eating right after exertion causes vomiting and poor absorption.
My dog ate some grape skins I threw away days ago; they were dried; is it in danger?
Watch how much was eaten; a small amount is usually fine with extra water and observation. Larger amounts cause vomiting, diarrhea, even acute kidney failure; if a lot was just eaten, induce vomiting at a vet. Grape poisoning shows in about 6 hours.
I bought a dog a week ago; the CVD test is positive for distemper but it has no distemper symptoms, only mild diarrhea 3 to 4 times a day; what should I do?
Distemper has respiratory, intestinal, skin, and nerve forms; early infection may show normal appetite, then intestinal signs like vomiting and diarrhea. The test strip is outdated and error-prone, so confirm with PCR; treat early to avoid nerve damage.
