Our 13-year-old dog has recently developed epilepsy. She had a seizure last week, and now her back legs will go out from under her at different times, and she has difficulty getting up after lying down. She is on Phenobarb, as well as heart medicine and thyroid meds. Her labs are all fine, but she doesn't show hind leg problems when excited at the vet. What could be causing her back leg issues and what can be done to help her?

My Yorkie has goopy eyes and one of his lower eyelids is swollen and red. It doesn't seem to bother him, but it looks awful. I'm on social security and don't have a lot of money. Is there something I can do to help him?

I have a 2-year-old dachshund with what looks like bruises or soot marks on his stomach and chest area. They do not appear to hurt when I touch them. Do you know what this could be?
