My dog, Nora, a 9-year-old weighing 53 lbs, ate two used eye glass wipes containing isopropyl alcohol. The wipes had most of their moisture gone. She has not vomited and seems normal. Should I be concerned, and is there any action needed?

My 1.5-year-old female dog, Kai, is having frequent accidents in the house and peeing very frequently, which I suspect is due to a bladder infection. She is not eating or drinking more than usual, nor is she more tired than usual. What should I do to address this issue?

My cat clawed my dog (Mastif) in the ear, causing a bubble in the tip of the ear. The bubble went down but then the whole ear ballooned again. The dog, Harper, is almost 5 years old and was last seen by a vet in March. She is not on any medications. What could be causing the ear swelling, and what should I do?
