Cooper has been very itchy since sometime last night/this morning. He was itching near his face so I kept checking his ears but there was nothing. Just noticing two bumps near one of his eyes, attaching pictures for reference. I felt his eyes/face looked a little swollen this evening but thought it was because he had just woken from a nap. What could this be and what can I give him for relief? (Please ignore the red inside his eyes and droopy eyes, he's sleepy as it's late and I'm trying to take a clear picture.) I've started applying ice pack just now and will put some aloe vera to see if he's able to sleep without being irritated.

Hi Ishita. It could be a meibomian gland inflammation/mite infestation/any bacterial infection. It’s advisable to get him clinically examined thoroughly by booking a home consultation for the correct diagnosis or treatment.

Thank you for responding, doctor! It has completely gone now though. It seems he had aggravated something by itching. Unrelated to this, what can I do to improve his gut health? Every time he comes back from boarding, he has loose motions and sometimes vomits. Last time it was very severe, with blood in his stool. We did a vet checkup by Kuddle with a blood test and nothing seemed wrong. He recovered in a few days with usual medication. What precautions or changes to make in the long term that would help?

Good to know that. That’s one of the problems every alternate pet faces post boarding. You will have to strictly instruct the concerned person to not change your pets diet. It either happens when there’s a sudden change in the diet or by getting infections from other affected pets. You can also keep copper on syrup Digyton starting prior to boarding and stopping after a week post boarding.

Hi, my 4 month old puppy just travelled with me from South India to North India via train and now it's been 2-3 days but from yesterday night he is vomiting yellow liquid, yesterday night he did once and tonight 3 times. doesn't contain any food but only the yellow liquid. Pls tell me what could it be as I took him to vet and he said my pet doesn't have any fever and gave one tablet to give for 5 days once.

Adoption apppeal for Sydney is charming, gentle, sensitive girl who is happy to sit quietly with you, play around with other dogs or even play on her own! She loves to eat rice, pumpkin, egg, banana, coconut and would be more than happy to explore other fruits/vege/non-veg. She is dewormed and vaccinated, poty trained (you may take her for walks after food). She has recently learnt 'sit and go' command, so feel free to train her on other basic commands as she is a quick learner. Since she has stayed with her sibling till now, she will need a little time to get used to being alone but again she will learn this very quickly. She has recently learnt to do small barks on strangers, unknown dogs so is a cute watchdog too. WhatsApp 9110698650
