I gave my dog, a 6-pound Chihuahua-Pomeranian mix named Gizmo who just turned 11, a second dose of Simparica 9 days after the first dose. He had a full physical check-up last Saturday and was found to be healthy with no other medications. Is there any risk from the early second dose, and what should I monitor for?

I accidentally gave my 5-month-old, 12 lbs dog named Lola an extra dose of Rimadyl 25mg, which was supposed to be administered once per day in the morning. She was just spayed 2 days ago and is also taking a pain medication and a liquid for giardia. Will the extra dose harm her?

My dog ate half of a chocolate bar. He is 43lbs. It was about 20 minutes ago, and he has not thrown up yet. His name is Ollie, and he is 5 years old. We gave him a very small dose of hydrogen peroxide to try and induce vomiting. What should I do?

My dog, Freddie, a 3-year-old weighing 20 pounds, has an ear infection. He cried when I hugged him last night, and I suspect it might be due to water getting into his ear during grooming. What can I do to help him until he sees the vet on Monday?

My 60-pound, 2-year-old golden retriever ate two grapes about 20 minutes ago. She hasn't vomited and is acting fine. The grapes were in chicken salad, and she got less than 1/4 cup of the salad. She takes heartworm medication once a month. What should I do?

My dog Sam had a large tumor on his spleen removed. He is now 2 1/2 days post-op. All is going well except I noticed his under eyes are swollen. He is on the medications Baytil (for a UTI), Codeine, and Gabapentin. What's happening?
