My 9-month-old golden retriever, Lola, has an eye infection that seems to be conjunctivitis. The inner/bottom of her eye is red, and it's not as open as her other eye. She's squinting it shut but not wiping at it. The upper right eyelid is bloodshot compared to the left, and her right eye looks a little hazy. Her pupils are the same size. I've used a warm rag to wipe the outside of her eye but haven't tried rinsing it with water. What should I do?

My 9-year-old lab, Gizmo, has been experiencing rapid panting episodes at night for about a year. She has put on weight, particularly in her belly, and drinks a lot of water. She also has a fear of thunder and loud noises. What could be causing these panting episodes and what should I do about her fear of thunder?

My dog, Roxie, a Pomeranian-Schitzhu, almost 8 years old, suddenly started having trouble walking up stairs and getting up from a sitting position without help. She also pants constantly. We took her to the vet, who said she seemed okay, but the issue persisted at home. What could be causing this and what should we do?

My 5-year-old female Shihpoo, Hennessey, is acting out of the norm. She barely eats her food, looks drained and upset, and wants more attention than usual. She has a hard bump on her upper body that seems painful, and she's been shaking. There has been a slight change in her environment. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My 15-year-old dog, Cocoa, accidentally ate about 10mg of an edible cookie. She weighs 16 pounds and hasn't thrown up since eating it. How much activated charcoal should I give her to help it pass?
