I want to get a toy for my friend's Sheltie, which is a year and a half old. I'm concerned about the dog's health and safety with toys. I've heard plush toys aren't good for dogs' teeth and could be swallowed. I'm also unsure if a toy labeled for large dogs and heavy intensity chewing would be suitable for a smaller dog like a Sheltie. What type of toy should I choose for this dog?

My dog, Pippin, who is 1 year old, has had pinkeye for a week. The discharge is yellow and goopy. I've been using homeopathic eyedrops, but one eye is still inflamed, with the third eyelid covering more of the eye. What should I do, and how is a scratched eye treated?

My dog, Kain, is weak and unable to stand on his own, and he has been fine all day. What can I do for him if I don't have the money right now for the vet to see him?

My 10-year-old Golden Retriever, Lucky, is not eating, unable to stand up to pee, and is vomiting. He had an infection in one leg and doesn't want to stand to go pee. He is on medication for the infected leg, including Gabapentin, Amoxicillin, and Benadryl. When did you first notice this decrease in his appetite, and does he seem to be in any pain?
