My 40-pound, 13-year-old dog named Chloe ate 5 M&Ms, 2 full-sized Snickers, and a Kit Kat. She seems completely normal and hasn't vomited. What should I do?

Our dog, Teddy, a 2-year-old, may have eaten about 4 coin-sized pieces of milk chocolate approximately 45 minutes ago. We tried to induce vomiting with a tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide diluted with water, but he only threw up a little liquid. We're unsure of how to proceed and need advice on whether further action is necessary.

I have a 12-year-old Shih Tzu named Buddy. He woke up with shakes or shivers and appears to be having difficulty breathing. I have not noticed any coughing, limping, or drooling. He may have come into contact with a dead animal near our property. What could be causing his symptoms and what should I do?

My father-in-law fed my 15-year-old Shih Tzu, Morty, a small amount of raw Jimmy Dean hot sausage three days ago. Morty weighs 11.8 lbs and has had some diarrhea yesterday but no bowel movement today. He is eating and drinking normally. What should I do?

My 10-month-old dog, Bella, is having super oily poops and throwing up. She threw up a piece of plastic, and has been vomiting off and on. Almost every time she sits down, oil comes out of her bum. She might have eaten a scrap of blanket and got a mouthful of cat poop yesterday. What should I do?
