My 6-month-old puppy, Ranger, ate a small amount of milk chocolate covered with crushed peppermint (about 2-3 grams, half the size of a chocolate kiss). He weighs 23 lbs and has no health issues or medications. What are the potential risks and what should I do?

I have a cattle dog mix weighing about 30 lbs who ate about 10 7.5 levothyroxin tablets an hour ago. Is this an emergency, and what should I do?

My dog, Lucy, a 1-year-old 11lb dog, has been having loose stools for the second day. Her stool was normal this morning, but after eating half a cup of her standard dog food and drinking water, she had two more loose poops. There has been no vomiting, no recent diet changes, and she hasn't gotten into anything unusual. The stool is lighter, runny, and has a smell like diarrhea. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her?
