My dog, Dakota, a one-year-old black lab weighing 50 pounds, ate one Halls Relief cough drop about 20 minutes ago. She hasn't vomited since then. Is there any further action I need to take?

My dog, Gideon, a 15-pound mutt, injured his leg or possibly dislocated his hip after jumping off the bed. He has a cut or bruise on his inner thigh near his groin and on his knee.

My two Havanese dogs ate a significant part of a chocolate croissant. One of them has Cushing's disease and is on medication. I am currently traveling and in a strange place. What should I do, and is there a risk of chocolate toxicity?
