I think my dog may have chewed a 10 mg Flexeril. She is only 4 lbs. I'm not positive she did though. What should I do to ensure her safety and what are the potential symptoms to watch for?

My 12-year-old Chihuahua/Pekingese mix, Calvin, has dark flaky skin and continues to shed flakes even after multiple washes. He has been licking his front paw, which is red, and has had black gunk under his eyes since moving to Florida three years ago. He has been using salmon oil in his food for a couple of weeks and has no pre-existing conditions. What could be causing this and what can I do to help him?

My 15lb, 11-year-old Maltese Poodle mix named Bowie jumped off a chair and is now not putting any weight on his leg. He yelped when he landed but is not making any further noises of pain. What could be the issue and can I give him low-dose Bayer aspirin for pain?
