My 6 kg Teddy ate a small durian seed; I tried salt to induce vomiting, then worried about salt poisoning and gave water. Could this amount cause salt poisoning? It seems fine but has not vomited or urinated.
Using salt to induce vomiting is unscientific; salt poisoning varies by animal, generally at 3 g/kg. A 6 kg dog eating 2 g of salt theoretically will not poison, but watch for chewing, foam, thirst, tremor, vomit, coma. Some show brain edema later; also watch for gut blockage from the seed. See a vet if abnormal.

My two-month-old Shiba Inu, just bought, cannot stand on its hind legs and keeps lying down.
Many causes exist for a dog not standing; get X-rays, blood, and infection tests at a vet for fast diagnosis. It may be calcium deficiency (common in pups/seniors), low blood sugar, or dehydration from severe illness. It can also be nerve, bone, low temperature, poisoning, or infection; see a vet.

How long does it take for a dog bitten by fleas to recover?
A flea bite itches; wash with soapy water or disinfect with iodine to relieve it, and the itch eases fast. The key is removing fleas with dog-specific external medication and disinfecting the environment. Fleas breed in heat and humidity, so avoid parasite-heavy areas and deworm regularly.
Two-month-old cat vomits about daily, undigested food, energetic, normal appetite, but today barely ate and slept; frequent sneezing thought due to dust, now yellow mucus. Can I buy Miaojinggan and Wangmiaoamo?
Vomiting, sneezing, and yellow mucus mean illness: cold, bacterial respiratory infection, herpes, or calicivirus. See a vet to confirm; a normal cold rarely vomits often and improves in 3-5 days, while viral needs symptomatic and antiviral care and may recur. Boost immunity and nutrition.
For a 1.5 kg dog, what are the doses of omeprazole, gentamicin, and vitamin C?
Omeprazole is 0.5-1 mg/kg once daily. Vitamin C injection is 0.2-1 ml/kg intramuscularly or intravenously, low dose. Gentamicin injection is 2 mg/kg but is nephrotoxic, so avoid in dogs under 3 months; oral gentamicin for diarrhea is gut-safe. Use pet-specific drugs under a vet.
How to remove this growth inside my rabbit’s ear, and what spray for the ear or the lump on its back of head?
Frequent head shaking, scratching, odor, redness, scabs, and brown discharge suggest ear mites, a stubborn parasitic infection needing patient cleaning, clean ventilation, and isolation. Use rabbit ear drops to soften and wipe; use a head cone if scratching is severe.
