Our dog has a nodule similar to the one pictured here. She has had it since summer. We thought it was some kind of bug bite but it has remained about the same size and shape since then. What should we do?

I have an 8-week-old lab puppy that has injured his right hind leg. X-rays show no broken bones, but the leg is worse in the morning when he first gets out of the crate. After a while, he runs on it, but it still seems weak. This has been going on for a week and a half. What could be the issue and what should I do?

I have a 1-year-old Chihuahua and a 5-year-old dachshund. The Chihuahua has become aggressive towards the dachshund, including pulling him around by his ear and deliberately peeing on him. What can I do to get this behavior under control?

My 8-year-old female dog has an eye infection starting on 11/29/13, characterized by inflammation, slow oozing of white stuff, and cloudiness. There is no previous history of eye infections. We were around my daughter's chihuahua, whose eyes are continually weeping. Is there a possible connection, and is there an at-home remedy I could try before seeking veterinary care?

My dog ate a bucket of hog scraps, old leftovers from the fridge. She is now shaking and breathing hard. I have given her 3 cc of milk of magnesium. What else should I do?
