I have an older Yorkie named Oliver, who is 8 lbs and has luxated patellas in his back legs. He recently hurt himself, and I mistakenly gave him an overdose of meloxidyl, using the syringe labeled for an 80 lb dog instead of the one for an 8 lb dog. What should I do to mitigate the effects of this overdose, and what are the potential risks involved?

My dog, Lilah, started scooting and had a red vaginal area, which led to a diagnosis of a UTI. She is now in the prayer position, shaking, and showing signs of pain after 6 days on antibiotics. Could this be stomach pain from the antibiotics, or is something else wrong?

My dog, Shaggy, who is around 10 to 12 years old, has been vomiting for the past two days, and his right eye is now swollen. The vomit is both liquidy and foamy, but there is no food in it. He hasn't eaten anything unusual that I am aware of. His eye is protruding, and his eyelid is swollen. He is also lethargic and not moving around much, which is unusual for him. What should I do?

My dog, Peanut, has been in pain since Friday, won't eat, has been whimpering, and today she collapsed and peed all over herself, unable to use her legs. She has been laying around for the past three days and ate part of a Chili Cheese Brat on Thursday, which led to vomiting and the start of stomach pain. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, Raffa, who is 2 years old, suddenly became lethargic and wobbly after sitting outside for an hour. He was fine and active all morning, but now he can barely walk, his tongue is hanging out a bit, and he's leaning to one side when still. What could be the problem, and what should I do?
