My Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Tag, had an incident with a horse 3-4 months ago where he was stepped on, resulting in a fractured toe treated with a splint. After the splint was removed, he had a slight limp which resolved, but now he is arching his back and exhibiting ataxia in his rear legs. I'm concerned about the potential cause and whether continuing with Rimadyl is the right approach. What could be wrong with Tag, and what steps should I take to diagnose and treat his condition?

Is it possible for a slight nick on an eyelid from grooming to become worsened by a dog trying to soothe it, and could such an injury go unnoticed by the groomer?

My dog has an ACL problem in his left leg. Recently, his leg was sore, and he had trouble getting up. The next day, I noticed his underbelly was distended, flabby, and irritated. His bad leg started swelling, and his body seemed full of fluid. I took him to the vet, who couldn't identify the issue but did blood work, which was normal. They prescribed doxycycline and a pain pill. After four doses, there's no change. Could it be an allergic reaction to Cosequin DS or Gabapentin? Should I continue with these supplements and medications? What should I do if the swelling doesn't improve?

My dog's back dewclaw has grown into the little pad. It doesn't seem to be bothering her, but it does look a little swollen. What can happen in this kind of situation? What should I do?
