My 73lb Siberian Husky mix, Sadie, chewed on a plastic Hot Shot roach pod and may have ingested some contents. Sadie is on Phenobarbital for seizures, prednisone for a skin allergy, and Doxycycline for heartworms. What should I do?

My golden retriever itches non-stop year-round and gets no relief from Benadryl, expensive foods, or various prescriptions. He has been on glucosamine daily and steroids have worked best for clearing up his hot spots, but I don't remember if they stopped the itching. What could be wrong with him and what further steps can be taken?

My Klee Kai dog ate about half a pound of milk chocolate, some with almonds, some with coconut, and some with maple. She has thrown up and is currently playful and very alert. What should I do?

My 7-year-old female Chihuahua constantly licks her legs and bites her rear paws, sometimes appearing to have a fit. I changed her dog food from chicken to beef kibble, thinking it might be a chicken allergy, but it helped only a little. She looks very uncomfortable. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her?

We own a 9-year-old long-haired dachshund who fell about 1-2 feet and landed on the right side of his neck/head area. Since then, he has been acting disoriented, withdrawn, and emotionally detached, which is unlike his usual behavior. He has a history of seizures but has not had one in over a year. What could be causing his current behavior and what steps should we take to help him?

My dog was prescribed both metronidazole 250mg and famotidine 10mg. Can I give one metronidazole in the morning and 1/2 tablet famotidine at night? The dog weighs 20 lbs and is on a rice and chicken diet, but the diarrhea does not stop. What is the correct dosage and schedule for these medications?
