My dog, Boo Boo, ate a small amount of dark chocolate. She is 10.5 pounds and 14.5 years old, with a history of testing positive for pancreatitis but no actual episodes, and recently treated for protein-losing nephropathy. She eats healthfully and I gave her a few ounces of food to dilute the chocolate's effect. I suspect she ate only a small square or two from a Trader Joe's dark chocolate bar. What should I do?

She was admitted to the vet overnight on IV due to a heart murmur, elevated kidney levels, liver issues, and a dropping body temperature. What could be causing these symptoms and what should be done?

My 6-year-old English Mastiff, Sophie, has a swollen knee joint with subsequent muscle atrophy due to inability to bear weight. This issue has recurred despite treatment with glucosamine and chondroitin, and it has worsened over the past three weeks. Sophie is otherwise acting normal and has no other health issues. What could be causing this swelling, and are there any other treatment options besides surgery?
