My 12-pound dog, Ozzie, chewed up an ant trap containing avermectin b. He has had seizures in the past but none since changing his food over a year ago, and he had pancreatitis once after eating a dead squirrel. What should I do about this situation?

My Chihuahua, Toby, has been experiencing hair loss patches with flaky dandruff, a musty smell, crusty scabs on the hair follicles, and dark patches with redness around the edges on his skin. I noticed this two weeks ago on his back, and he has not been itching or licking the area. I started him on probiotics and an antifungal shampoo, but his condition has not improved. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?

How much should I be feeding my 4-month-old, 18lb puppy? I have been giving him a cup and a half of dry food a day, but he still seems hungry.
