My dog, Maverick, ate approximately 14 ounces of Halloween candy (a mix of Snickers, M&Ms, and Twix) about 2 hours ago. He weighs 60 lbs, is 15 months old, and is up to date on all shots and in good health. He has not vomited since eating the candy and has shown increased thirst. What should I do?

My 2-year-old mixed shepherd dog, Theo, is acting strange with pain in his jaw/throat area, not eating or drinking, and seems scared and depressed. He was fine after a walk but now shows signs of pain when his throat or mouth is pressed. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Buster, was clipped by a car. He cannot put weight on his front right leg, has abrasions on his inner arm pit and a cut on his front knee, and is licking the area. He ran from the road into the house, his gums are still pink, and there is slight swelling from his elbow to wrist. What should I do?

Can I give a dog who is having frequent soft bowel movements a half tab (1 mg) of loperamide hydrochloride? He weighs about 23 lb. The dog has been having soft, formed bowel movements since Saturday, has eaten only kibble and dog biscuits, and has no known health issues or medications other than Simparica Trio for flea/tick/heartworm prevention. The dog is perky, eating well, and seems to feel fine, but has started pooping in the house despite being let out regularly.
