I have a dog with diabetes. We bought eye drops (Flubiprofen Sodium Ophthalmic) to help delay his blindness. After using them for a month, his eyesight worsened and he started bumping into things. His eyes also look darker now. Could the medicine have an opposite effect? Should we stop the eye drops? Is there any treatment for blindness other than surgery and implant?

My 11-year-old dog, Snoopy, has Cushing's disease, has had two ACL surgeries on his rear legs, and is experiencing trouble due to arthritis and being overweight. He is on thyroid meds and phenobarb for seizures. Is it a problem for him to be on carprofen?

My male dachshund, Max, has a swollen muzzle. I think he's been stung or bitten by a bug. There's no bleeding, just swelling on both sides of his nose and upper lip. He's otherwise healthy and weighs about 13 lbs. What should I do?

My 10-month-old basset hound, LeeLoo, ate a small glue stick for hot glue guns. The package indicates it is non-toxic and conforms to ASTM D4236. She is acting normally and has not vomited. What should I do?

My Yorkiepoo, PeeWee, gets upset when my husband goes away and stops eating. This time, after my husband left, PeeWee vomited several times, mostly gastric foam. He vomited a small amount of shredded chicken and tramadol he had been given. His stool is normal, and he is voiding, but he is not drinking much water. What should I do to help PeeWee until I can see the vet?
