My dog, Jackson, a 9-year-old, has had a dry cough since yesterday, similar to trying to cough up something but unable to. His breathing is fine, and there are no signs of nasal discharge, eye discharge, or phlegm. What could be causing this cough, and what can I do to help him?

My one-year-old dog, Cash, was scrotal neutered a week ago. His scrotum became very swollen after he ran down the stairs a few times. The swelling has gone down slightly but is still present. The incision is not oozing or draining, and he is acting normally. Is this normal to have swelling still, and should we keep his cone on until the swelling subsides?

I gave a dog 220 mg of naproxen this morning, and it started getting sick around 3 pm. The dog weighs about 100 lbs, so the dosage is a little less than 5 mg/kg. What should I do now, and is there anything I can give at home to help?

My Frenchie recently got tobramycin and atropine sulfate ophthalmic ointment for a corneal ulcer in one of his eyes. If I suspect his other eye may have an ulcer as well, is it bad to use these medications on his other eye if he weren’t to actually have an ulcer in the other eye?

My dog Finley seems to be constipated. He squats but does not have a bowel movement. His spirits are good/happy, but I suspect he needs to see a vet. What can I do at home to help him, and when should I seek immediate veterinary care?

My 9-month-old dog, Zeus, has had bright red bloody diarrhea for the past two days. He has vomited once in the past few days, is drinking water a bit faster than usual, and is eating less than normal, but otherwise seems like his usual self. What could be causing this and what should I do?
