My dog ate 16 milk chocolate Hershey bars. Do I need to do something? The dog weighs about 60 to 70lbs and the incident happened today between 8 and 3pm. The dog has not vomited and is a 6-year-old male named Beastie. What should I look for and what actions should I take?

We have a 9-week-old shihpoo puppy named Zoe who is lethargic, has taken a couple of sips of water, won't eat, and has thrown up twice today. She also seemed to have a seizure earlier. Should she be seen emergently or taken to our vet on Monday?

My dog, Odessa, a 9-year-old German Rottweiler, had major surgery for a ruptured tumor on her bladder and a full hysterectomy. Post-surgery, she has shown signs of a possible stroke, including facial drooping on the right side, difficulty chewing, and drooling. She is also very depressed, has a low energy level, and refuses to eat her regular food, only occasionally eating cooked chicken or deli ham. What could be causing these symptoms, and what can be done to help her?

He is not eating or drinking, has a pain relief patch, and I am giving him 1000 ml of saline water and boiled watery chicken soup daily. What could be causing his kidney failure and what general advice can you offer?

My dog ate one cheesy garlic stick and we are worried about poisoning. Can we help him vomit with hydrogen peroxide? He is a 1-year-old mini golden doodle weighing about 12-15 lbs.
