My Pomeranian fell on his head while walking home. Initially, he was dazed, froze up, and had some bleeding under his lip. He seemed fine afterward, but I'm concerned if he might have a concussion. What should I look out for, and does he need to see a vet?

I have a dog named Sallie who has an allergy problem, especially during this time of year. She scratches until all the hair is removed from around her eyes. I give her Benadryl when she gets really bad, but I'm afraid it's not good for her. We wash her feet when she comes back in the house and have changed her diet to chicken, rice, carrots, and peas, but nothing seems to help. How can I help Sallie with her allergies?

What could be causing my dog to sleep with her eyes open, have a green discharge in both eyes resembling conjunctivitis, and not blink (which lubricates her eyes)? The whites of her eyes are red, and she appears to have a whitish appearance in some places across her eyes. She also seems to have difficulty seeing things until she is right in front of them. Can conjunctivitis or a dry eye condition cause these symptoms, and what tests and treatments are recommended?

My dog ate a shamrock plant and some dirt. Now she is restless, wants to go outside and nose around in dirt, and her mouth seems to bother her a lot, causing her to gulp and swallow hard frequently. She doesn't appear sick otherwise and still moves around and wags her tail. Is this serious?
