My dog, Simba, a 4-year-old 70lb dog, ate about 15 pieces of chocolate and spicy Ethiopian food yesterday. He has vomited once and had diarrhea four times since then. His appetite and energy level are the same, but he is whining more than usual. What should I do, and is there a supplement to help maintain his gut health?

My mother-in-law accidentally gave my greater swiss mountain dog a double dose of levetiracetam (1500 mg instead of 750 mg) after dinner. The dog weighs about 140 lbs and takes this medication for seizures. Should we induce vomiting, and could this overdose affect his coordination, ability to stand, or respiratory system?

I have a puppy named Roar, who is about 3 months old and weighs between 20 and 25 pounds. She was fine except for chewing on grass, but after getting shots and Benadryl from a vet, she started vomiting, initially yellowish white and then white foamy vomit. She was drinking water but now refuses it. What can I do until I can get her to a vet?

I have two Australian Labradoodles, Bailey and Baxter, each 1 year old and weighing 20lb and 25lb respectively. They have been experiencing a dry hacking cough intermittently, which seems worse at night and in the morning. The cough started on Sunday night. They visit off-leash trails daily and attend dog daycare once a week. I suspect they have kennel cough. Are they vaccinated for kennel cough, and what should I do to help them?

My dog, Dabo, a 2-year-old weighing 55 lbs, ate some Ramipril about an hour ago. He has not vomited and shows no signs of being unwell. What should I do?
