My dog chewed up a bottle of betta water conditioner containing Calcium chloride, cobalt chloride, lithium chloride, magnesium chloride, manganese chloride, nickel chloride, potassium chloride, potassium iodide, zinc EDTA, sodium molybdate, sodium selenate, and strontium chloride. The dog, Lena, weighs 102 lbs and is 1.5 years old. She chewed the bottle about 5 minutes ago and seems fine. Is there any cause for concern?

My puppy, Remi, may have eaten part of a rubber toy ring earlier this morning. She has been acting normal, has had normal eliminations, and has not vomited. I believe I saw pieces of the toy in one of her eliminations. Do I need to take her to the vet, or does it sound like it may continue passing through?

My Lab/Pit mix, Chase, has had red eyes and oozing for a few weeks. The whites of his eyes are very red, similar to conjunctivitis in humans. He is a healthy 5-year-old dog with no known allergies or underlying medical conditions. What could be causing this and what treatment options are available?

I have a 9-year-old beagle/basset hound mix named Duncan who has developed a large, dry, crusted scab over about 1/3 of his back. The scab is hard and mixed with his coat, making it difficult to see due to his dark fur. Duncan has been rubbing against walls and tables to scratch at it, indicating discomfort. He is still eating, going to the bathroom, and sleeping well. I started giving him Benadryl at night, which seems to help with the scratching. What could the condition be, and what should I do?
