I have a 10-month-old German Shepherd/Border Collie mix (Milo) who ate some ghost pepper chips and has had diarrhea for the last two days, including a dark blood clot once. He hasn't vomited and is acting normal and very active. How concerned should I be, and what should I do?

My dog Coco has an injured eye that is swollen and keeps it shut. There is no bleeding or discharge, but she has conjunctival and scleral redness, periorbital swelling, and clear tearing. She is otherwise behaving normally. What could be causing this and what can be done to help her?

I have 4 dogs that just got bit by a copperhead snake. What should I do for them, and will they be okay with Benadryl, Prednisone, and antibiotics if antivenin is not available?

My dog, a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd Border Collie mix weighing around 30-40 lbs, got into a bottle of dog aspirin. We don't know how much he ate, but he has vomited about 4 times. He seems relatively normal but is smacking his mouth a lot and has a heart rate of 64 bpm. What should I do to help him and what symptoms should I watch out for?

My dog has brown pigmentation on her belly, which seems to have worsened since returning from a vacation. She has a history of allergies and skin infections. I bathed her in a shampoo containing tea tree oil, neem oil, and oatmeal. Do you think this could be a yeast infection, and what can I do at home to help her?
