My 35 lb, 9-month-old dog, Micco, ate about 2.2 ounces of dark chocolate (equivalent to Hershey's Special Dark). Should he be checked by an emergency vet clinic right away, or is it safe to monitor him through the night?

My 4-month-old Labradoodle, Rexy, has been experiencing skin issues for about a month, coinciding with a switch in food proteins. Despite switching back to a fish-based diet, there has been no improvement. The skin issues have spread from one spot to his belly, ribs, and paw. He has not seen a vet in the last two months and is not on any medications. What could be causing these skin issues and what steps can be taken to address them?

I have an 11lbs puppy named Sunny who just swallowed a Slim Jim beef stick whole, including the wrapper. I was wondering if I need to be concerned or if he will be able to digest it. He was at the vet today for shots and is generally in good health. Should we monitor him for any symptoms, and how should we proceed with his exercise routine?
