My dog, Ellie, has a larger right hock compared to the left, which has been present for almost a year. The vet aspirated a tiny bit of fluid from it six months ago, finding no signs of cancer. Now, it looks slightly larger, but Ellie shows no signs of pain or limping. Ellie is a pit bull mix, almost ten years old, and has PIMA, currently on Mycophenolate and Cyclosporin. What could be causing the enlarged hock, and what should be the next steps in diagnosing and treating this issue?

My 8-month-old Cocapoo, George, has an eye infection that has been getting worse over the past week. He can barely open his eye, is sneezing, and we recently left him and our other two dogs in a dog hotel for a week. What should I do to help George?

I dropped a bag of macadamia nuts on the floor and my two dogs, Chipper (almost 9 years old, 17 lbs) and Ryah (almost 12 years old, 25 lbs), each ate about 3 nuts. They are acting normal, but I am concerned about potential toxicity. What should I do, and when is the most crucial period for symptoms to appear?

My dog, Porter, a 11-year-old pug, has been limping on his front leg for a while, but it became severe this morning, to the point where he can't put any weight on it. He doesn't show any signs of pain when I touch his leg, but he refuses to put weight on it. He is generally super healthy and has never been sick. What could be causing this and what should I do?
