My 8-year-old dog was in a fight with a kitten two nights ago. Today, his left eye is droopy, there's minor swelling under his left eye, and he's extremely lethargic. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 14 1/2-year-old miniature pinscher has been experiencing diarrhea, loss of appetite, choking, falling over, and passing out for a moment. She recently had a chest X-ray showing a slightly enlarged heart and a bend in her trachea, with clear lungs. Her last blood work was fine, but she is on low-dose thyroid medicine and heart medication (enalapril and pimobendan). What other suggestions do you have for her condition?

My dog, Max, is not eating his regular food and only eats when it's mixed with other foods or when it's something he really likes. He recently ate part of a rubber ball and had diarrhea for a couple of days, but his stools are normal now. He also has a history of limping and inflammation in his elbow, for which he was prescribed steroids and antibiotics. What could be causing his picky eating behavior and what can I do to help him?

My 10-month-old female Pit Bull was spayed a week ago. She had a minor skin infection on her neck, was on antibiotics, and her incision is healing well. However, she has developed a thick, yellowish vaginal discharge that has worsened over the past two days. Could this be related to her spaying, and what should I do?

My 9-week-old beagle, Sarah, has runny, black/red stools. I've had her for two weeks and was changing her food, combining old with new. There was some mucous yesterday, but now it's just runny and appears black, turning rusty red when cleaned up. She's still active and playful. What could be causing this and what should I do?
