My 85-pound German Shepherd Husky mix ate around 3 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips (51% cocoa) along with walnuts and pumpkin seeds. What are the potential effects on my dog, and what should I do to manage any stomach upset?

I noticed a red spot on my dog's skin where fur came off, just below her lower lip. She has also lost some pigment around her nose and nostrils. What could this be and what should I do?

My dog, Ren, has recently developed small, red, skin tag-like growths on her stomach. She had just been to an ophthalmologist for cysts in her eye and is currently using eye drops. The growths were noticed either this morning or last night and are located under her chest between her front legs. She is also on supplements, which I can provide details of. What could these growths be, and should I be concerned?

My dog, Koda, age 3, has been panting, her belly is hard, and she has been shaking. She is not spayed and doesn't have her rabies shot. She sometimes tries to poop but can't, and her poop is like little pebbles. She has been given pumpkin puree, which made her poop a little bigger but smooshy. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

My dog, Gryffin, who is 4 years old, has been vomiting several times, to the point of just puking up foam and still trying to force himself to vomit. He has not eaten anything unusual, and we've been indoors all day due to rain. What should I do?

My dog, a 27-pound beagle named Sirius (2 years old), ate a 0.6oz snack size dark chocolate Mounds bar 6 hours ago. He is acting normally and has not vomited. He also licked several peanut M&Ms but did not eat them. Should I be concerned about chocolate toxicity?
