How long after eating fish soup does a dog start lactating?

My 1-year-old female mixed dog keeps making urination motions but produces no urine; what is wrong?

My dog ate some grape skins I threw away days ago; they were dried; is it in danger?

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?
