My dog, Frankie, who is 7 years old, has a small, round, bulb-like lump on his anus. I first noticed it 5 days ago. I took him to the vet, and they suggested it might be a skin tag but were unsure. What could this lump be, and what should I do about it?

My dog ate some chocolate. She's around 9lbs and ate a smaller piece of gluten-free cake from a restaurant, similar in size to a store-bought brownie. It's been about 10 minutes since she ate it, and she hasn't vomited. What should I do?

My dog, Atticus, a 75-pound, 1 year and 5-month-old dog, ate a whole pork femur an hour ago. He has not vomited and I gave him simple rice Chex cereal. How should I monitor him, and what symptoms should I look for to determine if he needs veterinary attention?
