I accidentally gave my 70-pound dog, Chewie, who is 9 years old, my other dog’s full dose of 750mg extended-release Keppra. It has been about 15 minutes since this happened, and she has not vomited. What should I do?

My 14-week-old mini dachshund puppy, Maizi, suddenly started vomiting, seems tired but alert, and chews on everything in the backyard. She weighs 7 lbs and had a vet check-up scheduled in two weeks. No other symptoms are present, and her eyes are bright and clear. What could be causing her vomiting and what should I do?

Our puppy has pink eye in her left eye. It started tearing up yesterday and is now pink, swollen, and oozing. She was at doggy daycare yesterday and was fine until evening. What should we do until we can get her to the vet on Monday?

My female Shizu mix dog, Sugar Bear, has congestive heart failure and is experiencing worsening coughing and difficulty breathing, with a breathing rate of 35 breaths per minute even when resting. She has been on enalapril and recently tried a diuretic, but it didn't seem to help. What should I do to make her more comfortable and how can I tell if her breathing becomes extremely hard due to fluid in her lungs?

My dog, Kona, a 4-year-old, has had diarrhea for 2 days. She has not eaten anything unusual, and she is otherwise acting normally. We switched her to a boiled chicken and rice diet, but there has been no improvement. What can we do to help her, and should we wait until her vet appointment on Monday?

We went to the vet and they prescribed an antibiotic, a mousse, and an antifungal treatment for our dog. We started the treatment yesterday, but the area is still raw and bleeding in spots. Should we continue applying the mousse once a day and taking the antibiotic, and will it dry up soon? Additionally, the mousse is very sensitive and difficult to massage in. Is there anything else we should do, like using a hydrocortisone ointment or a Zymox spray?
