My 7-year-old Chihuahua/Shih Tzu mix had a proptosed globe in her left eye. The vet prescribed Ak Poly Bac ointment to be applied to the eye. What is the best way to get the ointment in her eye?

My 62 lb, 9 month old German Shepherd pup ate several wheat germ capsules and possibly a couple of cysta-q, cranberry-based vitamins. She is acting completely normally. Is this a cause for concern?

My teacup Yorkie (5 lbs) and chihuahua (4 lbs) ate half of a large oatmeal raisin cookie. Is this dangerous for them and what should I do?

My 14-year-old dog was recently staggery, vomited twice, and urinated in the house, which is unusual for him. I took him to the vet who performed a CBC, UA, and started him on Baytril (135 mg). His appetite has been poor, refusing dog food but eating roast beef and gravy, and he's been extra sleepy. He hasn't had a bowel movement for two days, which is also unusual. He's drinking water and urinating fine. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
