I adopted a young pariah dog that was diagnosed with distemper and has since recovered, but now has serious eye issues. The right eye has a white layer covering it, and both eyes show redness and inner eyelid visibility. The vet diagnosed it with corneal opacity and prescribed antibiotics. However, the right eye is now not opening at all, and there is yellow discharge. Is this eye issue related to the past distemper, and could it lead to losing the eye? How long can antibiotics like Tobramycin be continued, and could the dog's laziness be due to eye pain?

Our 14 2/3-year-old dog, Viper, passed away during a 2-hour surgery to neuter and remove polyps around his anal area. The vet tried CPR and epinephrine but was unsuccessful. We are heartbroken and wondering if we should have requested a necropsy, even though it wouldn't bring Viper back. What do you think?

We have a dog named Nemo who went under the fence into the neighbor's yard and later I noticed a red filled in circle with a dot in the middle on her inner thigh. Could this be contagious to our other dog and our cats?

My 5-month-old dog, Delilah, was running and playing earlier but now she is drooling, sleeping, and breathing shallowly. She also vomited. What could be the cause and what should I do?

My 5-year-old Chihuahua is pooping blood with no feces, has energy but isn't hungry or thirsty, and has been vomiting his food for the last two days. He tested positive for a tick-borne disease when I adopted him and has been on antibiotics. What should I do?

My 10-year-old lab has watery diarrhea and threw up what appeared to be very watery and light-colored blood. He was at a sitter's house for 3 days and has been unusually active but also exhausted. He went out to poop 5 times between 10 PM and 4 AM, which is unusual for him. What could be causing this and what should I do?
