My 13-pound, 10-month-old dog, Bourbon, ate approximately 0.29 ounces of milk chocolate (about 10 Milk Duds) within the last 45 minutes. He has not vomited and is eating normally. Is this amount of chocolate harmful, and should I be concerned about any potential symptoms or side effects?

What is Lypex capsule, is it safe for dogs, and what are its ingredients? My dog has high lipase levels but normal canine-specific lipase levels, and I was advised to give her Lypex, but I stopped after a friend, an American vet, suggested otherwise. Should I be concerned about any harm caused by giving Lypex for months, and what should I do for my dog who is about to give birth?

My dog Marley, who is nearly 4 years old, has been experiencing unusual stools. On Tuesday morning, he vomited water all over my bed and refused to eat dinner that night, vomiting water again. On Wednesday night, he ate his food but vomited it back up within minutes. I took him to an after-hours vet who suspected gastro and gave him an antibiotic injection and an injection to stop vomiting, along with a prescription for antibiotics. Tonight, his stool looked grey on the outside but orange on the inside with white spots that resemble sesame seeds. Could you help me understand what might be causing this and what steps I should take?

Hello, I have two labs. One or both dogs ate a 200g bag of Smarties. I managed to induce vomiting (using hydrogen peroxide) on one of the dogs, and there was Smarties in the vomit. Not sure if it was all of the 200g. I haven’t been able to induce vomit on the second dog. Should I take her to the emergency?
