My dog sometimes vomits after eating something else or a chew stick, sometimes undigested food, sometimes white foam, but no other problems. What’s going on?
Frequent vomiting may signal chronic gastritis, pancreatitis, liver disease, or parasites, which make the gut sensitive to new food. See a vet; if it's a puppy, weak digestion may be the cause. Use probiotics and avoid extra foods.
I bathed the dog a few days ago; after that its hind legs were unsteady, and it’s been like this for days. Today it keeps falling and cries out.
Unsteady walking and falling usually aren't from bathing. In puppies it's often nutritional bone-development issues; in seniors it may be arthritis or neurological problems. Hypoglycemia also causes this. See a vet.
There are small bumps on the belly near the mammary glands and urethra that can be felt; what is this and how to treat it?
Small red bumps on a puppy's belly may be allergy, external parasites, folliculitis, or fungus, worsened by damp skin and bacteria. Use anti-itch, anti-inflammatory, desensitizing meds and keep the area dry; deworm for parasites or use antifungals as needed.
A 2-month-old Labrador with diarrhea, vomiting white foam, lethargy, no barking, no tail wagging
Diarrhea, white-foam vomit and lethargy in a 2-month-old have many causes needing clinical workup; usually acute gastroenteritis from bad diet, or viral/parasitic/toxic. If it ate spoiled or greasy food, suspect acute gastroenteritis—fast, give probiotics/anti-inflammatories, and see a vet if weak/dehydrated. If unvaccinated/un-dewormed and young, consider parvovirus, coronavirus or distemper—highly fatal—requiring hospital care.

My 2.5-month Pomeranian arrived yesterday, had normal stool, then diarrhea and vomiting; today it is weak, hind legs limp, eyes closed. What is wrong?
