My 15-week-old Great Dane puppy, Crater, got into a full bag of dog food about 6 hours ago. His stomach is very distended and hasn't gone down. He hasn't thrown up and we haven't given him any water since the incident. What should we do to help him and what signs should we watch for?

My 8-month-old 60 lb Australian Cattle Dog/Shepherd mix chewed a half-full bottle of Visine. I am unsure if he ingested any of it, but I found the chewed bottle after leaving him for 30 minutes. He is acting normal and has not vomited. What should I do if he starts to vomit or shows any other signs of GI upset?

I have a 4-pound, 11-year-old silky terrier named TickTac who has been sneezing, coughing/choking, and has watery eyes for the past 2 weeks. She was prescribed antibiotics and a cough suppressant by the vet, but there has been no improvement. She also licks her lips a lot, and I suspect she might have a foxtail in her nose. Her heart sounded strong and healthy during her vet visit, but the vet mentioned a possible respiratory infection. What additional steps should I take to address her symptoms?

My dog, a wiener/Yorkie mix named Dozer, has been acting weird for about a week. He winces when picked up, makes weird breathing noises, walks/runs much slower than normal, and paces. I found a small chewed bottle of eye drops, but he hasn't thrown up. He's still using the restroom but is acting very odd. What could be causing this behavior?

I just got a 6-month-old female puppy named Pattycake. She has had no medications and was wormed as a puppy. What type of puppy shots does she need, and what else should the vet know before I connect with them?
