My 24lb dog, Twig, a 3-year-old male Kleekai, was in a scuffle with a much larger dog about 12 hours ago. He went to his back and appeared to have a seizure. He was limp but conscious when I picked him up and was taken to a vet where he appeared 'stoned' due to being wobbly on his feet and having a distant look in his eyes. Blood work was normal, and he was sent home with 250cc of fluid under the skin for possible dehydration. He is progressively getting worse, very unstable, won't eat or drink, looks up a lot, and stares off. Could he have a head injury, and what should be done next?

My dog (a 13-pound Havanese) has a mole/growth on her back that she constantly rolls on and pops, causing layers of blood-crusted hair to accumulate. The growth was initially the size of a dime but is now the size of a smashed ping pong ball due to the crusted hair. I'm taking her in soon to get it removed, but how do I get the layers of crud off in the meantime?

My English bulldog, Kevin, ate a bottle of Visine eye drops. We are unsure of the amount consumed, but it appears a lot was absorbed into our couch. Kevin weighs about 40 lbs and is 1 year old. What should we do to ensure his safety and monitor his condition?

I have a 6-month-old English Mastiff named Kona. In the last 24 hours, she hasn't eaten or drank any water until around 10:30 last night when she ate some wet food and drank water, but her stomach was making crazy gurgling noises. Today, she hasn't eaten anything or drank water and threw up tiny blood-looking specks about 10 minutes ago. She seems interested in treats and chicken but still no regular dog food or water. She hasn't pooped since this morning, and her last normal poop was this morning. She is playing like normal, sleeping like normal, and still active and curious. What could be the issue and what should I do?
