My dog accidentally got 1 and 1/4 grain of phenobarbital, which is meant for another dog. He weighs about 80lbs. What should I do?

My 14-year-old dog, Mio, was walking home when he suddenly showed signs of pain, high temperature, and was unable to get up. He was taken to local vets who managed to reduce his temperature and pain, but the cause of his condition remains unknown. There are marks on his body, and he has high renal values. Could this be due to a snake bite or a chemical burn, and what should be done to help him?

My 16 lbs dog, Penny, ate about half of a 3.5 oz dark chocolate bar between 12.5 to 7.5 hours ago. She is currently acting fine but I'm concerned about potential toxicity. What should I do to monitor her and ensure she stays safe, especially since we have a flight today?

My 12-pound French Bulldog, PJ, ate a homemade edible cookie containing approximately 20mg of THC. She is currently very sleepy, off balance, and has had some water and a little food. What should I do, and what symptoms should I watch for that might indicate a more serious issue?

My 7 lb chihuahua, Nina, ate a full bag of Raisinets about 3-4 hours ago. We gave her 5 mL of hydrogen peroxide and then 15 mL of activated liquid charcoal. She is also on seizure medication (Levetiracetam, 250 mg). Is she in danger of kidney or heart failure, and does she need to be given laxatives or have her stomach pumped?

My dog is in labor but hasn't had puppies yet. She is shaking, nervous, and had some fluid come out. She's scratching and was shaky all day but still very active. It's her first time having puppies, and she is a red lab weighing around 35 lbs. Can I give her more calcium now? I gave 2 cc 8 hours ago.
