I have two young Havanese, a male and a female, who potty around 9:30 PM and then sleep in a large wire kennel for almost 12 hours or more. They are active during the day and potty several times, but I'm concerned about them holding it in overnight. Should I set an alarm to make them go out, or is this okay for them?

My dog, Dozer, is throwing up and has hives. He is almost a year old and has never had this before. I gave him a baking soda bath and a little Benadryl, and he seems a little better but still not looking like himself. What should I do?

I have a 10-year-old female boxer named Riley who has been scraping the nails on her left rear paw. She shows no changes in appetite, mood, or energy, and the issue seems to improve with rest. The vet initially thought it was a pinched nerve and prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs. I'm concerned it could be degenerative myelopathy, as it doesn't seem to improve with rest. What could be causing this, and what steps should I take to manage it?

My 6-month-old West Highland Terrier, weighing 8.20kg (about 18 pounds), accidentally ate one square (1oz) of milk chocolate. Should I be worried and take him to the vet?

One of my dogs ingested 29 of 40mg omeprazole tablets. Both dogs weigh over 100 lbs. Should I induce vomiting, and what are the potential side effects of this overdose?
