My Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix, Hairy, suddenly became lethargic, fell over, and had a loss of bladder control. He then staggered and fell again, appearing disoriented. He is now resting but showing shallow breathing. Could this be a seizure, syncope, or abdominal obstruction due to his tendency to chew on various objects? He has an annual checkup scheduled but needs immediate attention.

My dog, 10K, has nerve damage in his front right foot from a fall in April. The foot is now swollen due to a too-tight bandage. I have been cleaning the wound, using a sugar bandage, and soaking in warm sea salt water. What should I do to reduce the swelling and manage the wound?
