My 6-year-old Red Heeler, Niko, was diagnosed with glaucoma yesterday and has been on eye drops since. Over the last 3-4 weeks, he has been bumping into things and his eyes are red, but otherwise, he has been acting normally. However, since his visit to the ophthalmologist, he has been squinting, not wanting to keep his eyes open, and has much less energy. Why might he be worse since the visit, and what should I do?

My miniature poodle, Ruby, ate 5 small foil-wrapped chocolate Easter eggs from the dollar store. She is 15 lbs and almost 2 years old. What should I do and is she at risk of chocolate toxicity?

My 14-year-old Rottweiler, Talos, has lost significant weight rapidly, has bulging eyes, is panting heavily, and is not eating well unless I mix human food with his dog food. He has swollen throat at times, fatty tumors, and makes a weird noise when breathing through his nose. He was diagnosed with hypothyroidism three years ago but was declared healthy a year ago. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

My black lab puppy, Remi, has been acting very sick for the past few days. She whines randomly, has increased breathing, is lethargic, and seems to be in pain, especially under her right shoulder. She was bitten by another dog a day before these symptoms started. Her appetite and stool are normal, and her gums are normal in color. She has only had one set of puppy shots and no rabies vaccine yet. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

My dog has a wound between her paw and red dots on her nail. I'm unsure how she got the wound and if it has been ongoing without my notice. What should I do?

My dog, Bandit, a 2-year-old Border Collie weighing 50lbs, ate about 6oz of tomato marinara sauce from a restaurant. I'm unsure if it contains garlic or onion. What should I do?
