My dog, Otis, is pacing back and forth, desperately wanting to go outside to eat grass. He's making noises like there's a lot of saliva in his mouth and doesn't seem like himself. He is eating and drinking as normal, but he and our other dog ate quite a few 'dog calming' treats last night. What could be causing this behavior, and what should I do?

I have a 64 lb female Doberman who is almost 4 years old. Due to high anxiety from past abuse, she takes fluoxetine daily. She is having an allergic reaction to an unknown substance or food, licking her feet and legs incessantly. She just returned from a 5-day board and train, possibly having eaten something she's allergic to like chicken. What can I give her to help alleviate the itching until her vet opens on Monday? I looked up Benadryl but a few websites said not to mix it with fluoxetine.
