My 60-pound dog, Ray, ate a fried chicken breast including the bones. She seems to be acting fine other than acting guilty. Should we do anything?

My dog, Trixie, has had diarrhea for over 24 hours. She might have eaten some spoiled chicken recently, and she has been lethargic for the last few days. She is fully vaccinated, not on any medication, and still eating. What should I do?

My dog, Marley, has had diarrhea since last week and was prescribed metronidazole. After starting the antibiotic, she became whiny, restless, and started licking her private areas more frequently. Her tail also appears limp. Is it safe for her to continue the metronidazole, and could she have an infection in her feminine area or is this related to her diarrhea? Additionally, when should the antibiotic start working, and could it cause diarrhea? Should I be concerned about her condition being an emergency, and are there any specific bland dog foods you recommend?
