Hi. I think my dog may have been bitten by a snake. I just came home. His snout is swollen and there are tiny droplets of blood. I was gone for about an hour. The blood was fresh but it was really small. My dog's name is Grizzly, he's a 7-year-old black lab. I gave him Benadryl (3 tablets of 25 milligrams each). What should I do?

If Grizzly has been bitten by a snake, he should be hospitalized for a minimum of 8 hours to monitor...

My Chihuahua, Darty, has been sniffling, coughing, and wheezing for 3 days. The wheezing is pretty constant, with breaks every half hour for about 5-10 minutes. Darty is 5 years old and just had his vaccinations and started medication on Tuesday. He has also been 'fly biting' for a couple of months, which is why we originally took him to the vet on Tuesday. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to help him?

My Labrador mix, Bailey, is sneezing, lethargic, very hot, has fever chills, not eating, and his chest looks extremely swollen. He's usually the first to eat but hasn't moved much today. What could be wrong and what should I do?

My dog, Pikachu, a 10-pound cavapoo, chewed on a combat ant trap but didn't swallow it. He punctured the housing in several spots and gagged a little after drinking broth. What should I do?

My dog, Jinx, a 22 lbs Miniature Aussie, ate part of a starfish at the beach. He is almost 11 years old. He had chewed off part of it and there were a few pieces on the floor. He had just eaten his dinner and then went back to eat more dry food and drink water. Is this a concern, and what should I watch for?

My dog, Maggie, who is 9 years old, has been having trouble opening her eye partially and it feels rock hard under her eye for a week. She last saw a vet in May for her yearly check-up and is not on any medications. What could be the issue and what should I do?
