My 16-year-old pit bull, Rudy, has been stumbling like he's drunk, experiencing weakness in his hind end, lethargy, and had his first seizure shortly after a cortisone shot for back pain. He won't eat his normal food, is uncoordinated, and has lost his balance. Could these issues be related to the cortisone shot, a seizure, or something else? What should I do to help him?

My 12-week-old Pomeranian Yorki mix, weighing about 3 pounds, may have ingested a small amount of Amdro ant poison granules containing hydramethylnon 0.0360% and methoprene 0.0172%. I'm not sure if she actually ate any, but I saw her sniffing it. What should I be concerned about and what actions should I take?

My dog, Farley, has diarrhea and his ears are warm to the touch. He is up to date on his shots but due in a month. He also has a 6 cm tumor in his chest that he's been managing well. I've been treating him with mussel powder and Devil's claw for the tumor. He's still drinking and eating, but he pooped again about 2 hours after dinner. How long has this diarrhea been going on, and could it be related to him swimming in the river and drinking water on Friday and Saturday?
