My 13 lb Dachshund, Winston, accidentally ingested 150 mg of zonisamide from my other dog's medication. He is 7 years old, weighs 13 lbs, and has no health issues. It has been 2 hours since he ingested the medication, and he has not vomited. He seems extra sleepy but still walks around fine. How long is the wait for help, and what should I do to ensure his safety?

My dog, Theo, a 7-year-old Yorkie weighing 11.5 pounds, has had three pancreatitis attacks. He experienced loose stools and vomiting, is panting, weak, and has a bloated stomach. The vomit is liquidy and foamy, with no food in it. Could he have eaten anything unusual, and what can be done to avoid future attacks? Is pancreatitis life-threatening, and is gabapentin recommended for pain?
