Our 8-year-old lab/border collie mix, Bandit, has an eye infection with symptoms of a cloudy eye and white discharge. He was diagnosed with a small scratch in his eye and prescribed Cipro eye drops and Atropine. However, his eye appears worse after starting treatment. Given that our other dog has an MRSP nasal and UTI infection, and the cat may have spread MRSP through the house, what is the possibility that Bandit's eye infection is MRSP, and should we take him to UC Davis for further evaluation?

My mini pin, Lucy, is known for severe seizures. Last night, she couldn't stand or walk, was unbalanced, and her left paw curled under her (walking on knuckles). She also became aggressive with her friend Buddy, which is unusual for her. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

My dog, a Dachshund, was having diarrhea last night and this morning, which seems to be better now, but she is vomiting clear stuff and appears lethargic. I gave her half a tablet of Immodium this morning, which helped the diarrhea, and just gave her half a teaspoon of Pepto Bismol. What else can I do to help her?

My puppy, a beagle named Cordelia, got into Sevin powder while we were out walking. I'm not sure if she actually ate any, but I have washed out her mouth. What symptoms should I watch for?

I have a mini Aussie Shepherd about 20 pounds. She ate some rat killer but pooped out the rest. Now, she has been peeing a lot and the urine is very sticky, which is unusual for her. What should I be doing?
