My 14-year-old female Pug, who has been diabetic for a month, is currently on 7 units of Humulin 70/30 insulin twice a day. She eats Hills w/d and sometimes Hills a/d. Her blood sugar levels are fluctuating, with a reading of 70 two hours after an injection and meal. Should I be concerned about these levels, and what should I do if they drop further?

My dog, Blitz, a 15-month-old weighing 34 pounds, ate a banana chocolate chip muffin about 5 minutes ago. He is on a no-meat diet due to potential allergies. Should I be concerned about chocolate toxicity, and is there any action I should take?
