Hello! My dog has an infected pad. I noticed he was limping about a week ago and saw that his pad was cracked, so I started treating it with Bag Balm, but it's become much more sensitive and painful to him, and he's hesitant to walk on it. I can't get him in to see a vet. Are there things I can do to treat it at home?

Our 20 lb Golden Retriever, Bonnie, may have eaten 1 mg of my daughter’s Risperidone. We made her vomit within 30 minutes, but didn’t see anything. Should we take her to the emergency vet, or just monitor her condition?

My shih tzu dog, Casey, has a cloudy eye due to a poke in the eye about 3 weeks ago. The vet prescribed eye drops, but Casey is still losing sight in that eye. What could be causing this and what should I do to save his eye?

My Golden Retriever puppy, Bear, is unable to hold anything down, including water, and has had blood in his poop. He has also had the runs for a while. We were at the beach recently, and I noticed seaweed in his poop. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My little dog, Peaches, was at the kennel last week and came down sick with explosive diarrhea and vomiting. The vomit initially contained chicken and rice, and she has been unable to keep anything down since Sunday. She is 10 years old, up-to-date on her vaccines, and weighs about 12 lbs. What could be causing her symptoms and what immediate steps can I take to help her?

My 14-year-old Border Collie got into chocolate last night. She had diarrhea and was shaky and agitated. My vet recommended giving her 1 mg of Xanax to combat the toxic effects of the chocolate. She weighs 70 lbs and is now very wobbly when she tries to stand, and her left eye is rolled back, which I've never seen before. What else can I do besides giving her water, and should I give her more Xanax if she's agitated again later?
