My dog has maggots in its ear and I can’t get to a hospital. I searched online and it said fly eggs/larvae; I sprayed iodine and saline and pulled a lot out, but some are probably still inside the ear. I sprinkled some amoxicillin on it – is there anything else I should do?

My female turtle kicks her hind legs on the ground and makes clucking sounds. Is she in heat or about to lay eggs?

What happens if a dog eats boiled eggs?
Eating a moderate amount of boiled egg is beneficial to a dog's health, because eggs are rich in protein, minerals, and lecithin, and appropriate feeding can supplement nutrition and boost the dog's immunity. However, don't feed too much egg white, because egg white contains avidin, and too much can affect the dog's absorption of vitamin H (biotin). Second, never feed a dog raw eggs, because raw eggs may carry parasites or salmonella and easily harm the dog's health. Finally, although eggs are nutritious, don't overfeed them either, to avoid indigestion in the dog.
