My dog, Lucy, a 7-year-old yellow lab, has had an eye infection for about a week. It is draining and she has trouble opening that eye. She also has a thyroid disorder and is on levothyroxin 0.6 MG. What should I do for her eye infection?

My dog got into a bag of dark chocolate Hershey's kisses. The bag was about 1/3-1/2 full. She weighs 80lbs. It's been about 2.5 hrs since the event potentially happened. Do I need to induce vomiting?

My dog, Scootie, a 3-year-old Peek-a-poo, is experiencing abdominal pain, appearing hunched over and tense. He was fine until this morning and has no recent history of medication or vet visits. He seems to be in good spirits and has eaten, but his belly remains tense and he walks as if he is using the bathroom. He recently went camping, and I'm unsure if he may have ingested something harmful. What could be causing his pain, and what should I do?

My 6-month-old dog, Onyx, has been experiencing constipation. I gave him Naturvet Stool Ease, and he had a bowel movement today but very little and with straining. He was taken to the ER three weeks ago after eating human beef jerky and vomiting. He was given anti-nausea medication and IV fluids but refused to eat for four days. He drank water and coconut water and then resumed eating for two weeks before stopping again and showing signs of straining. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My three large breed dogs (a 14-year-old chocolate lab mix, a 2-year-old German Shepherd, and a 3-year-old goldendoodle) got into a small zip lock bag of trail mix containing raisins, cashews, peanuts, and M&Ms. About half a cup of the trail mix was eaten, but I don't know how much each dog consumed. They haven't vomited and are currently showing no symptoms. What should I do, and how soon should I expect to see any signs of problems?

My dog, Bleu, a 2-year-old standard poodle weighing 60-70lbs, ate 3 pieces of semi-frozen chicken. There were no bones in the chicken, and he hasn't vomited since eating them. What should I do to ensure his health and safety?
