My dog was attacked by something that got into my fence. She has small lesions around her ears and face, is limping on one leg, and has swelling around her cuts and one swollen eye. I gave her a bath and applied antibiotic ointment. What else should I do?

My dog, Chico, a 6-year-old spayed female, recently got her shots and now has mucus discharge from her pee hole. She seemed tired after the shots but is fine now. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Otis, a 55-pound rescue believed to be about a year and a half old, ate one tablet of 5mg melatonin that contains xylitol. The tablet was taken about 40 minutes ago, and he has not vomited. He seems fine. What should I do?

Our vet is closed for the holidays and they saw our mini dachshund on Wednesday where they said she pooped all over the place, but hasn't pooped since. She is eating, drinking, and peeing, but no poop. The meds prescribed are Gabapentin, Meloxidyl, and Methocarbamol. Is this concerning, and should we be worried?

My 4.5-year-old black lab, Ruby, vomited her dinner and clear liquid after being left alone for four hours, the longest she has ever been alone. She also vomited clear liquid multiple times and emptied her water bowl. She drank water but vomited it up immediately. She did not sleep on my bed that night and vomited clear liquid again the next morning. I gave her water again and she vomited it within 5 minutes. She weighs 100 pounds and is very attached to me. I found bits of rubber insulation around the door to the garage that she had scratched at and broken off. She is not known for eating non-food items and I think her anxiety is a contributing factor. What should I do to help her and should I take her to the emergency hospital?
