My dog's inner tear ducts are slightly swollen and a pinkish red color. My brother and I think he might have an eye infection. My brother took him to the vet a few months back and received ointment and eye drops, which worked but we noticed his eyes were looking the same after about 2 or 3 months after treatment. What should we do for our 7-year-old German Shepherd named Kane, who is still energetic and playful, aside from his eyes?

She last ate at 7 pm yesterday and seems excited about food but hasn't been given any today. She is currently trying to nap but keeps belching and making sounds to throw up. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have a new puppy named Poli, who weighs about 3 lbs and has a bad worm problem. I couldn't find deworming medicine suitable for her weight, and the closest I found was for 6 lbs.
