Three dogs ate 1lb of 70% dark chocolate within the last hour. The dogs weigh 75lbs, 75lbs, and 60lbs respectively. None of the dogs have vomited yet. What should be done to induce vomiting and what are the next steps if they don't vomit?

My dog, Spotty, is 8 years old and has been breathing hard. He also vomited around 6am today. He was recently checked by a vet but no issues were found. What could be causing his breathing difficulties and vomiting, and what should I do?

My 8-pound Yorkie, Cash, got into the trash and is now yelping when picked up, shaking, limping, lowering his body to the floor, and nipping when touched, indicating pain. He ate his dinner fine but hasn't vomited. What should I do?

My 60lb black lab, Finley, who is 5 years old and has a history of pancreatitis, ate fudge made with 12 oz of milk chocolate an hour or two ago. He has not vomited. Is there anything I can do to help him, and what should I watch for?

My dog, Gator, an American Bulldog aged 9, has been experiencing a sickly sweet smell, excessive thirst, urinary incontinence, lethargy, and decreased appetite for about a month. He seems to be unable to control his urine and has never had these issues before, despite recent surgeries. I suspect he might be diabetic and possibly in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). What should I do?
