My German Shepherd, Mallie, who weighs 78lbs and is 14 months old, just ate about a quarter of my chocolate milkshake from Sonic. It happened about five minutes ago, and she hasn't thrown up yet. Is there any concern about chocolate toxicity or stomach upset?

Our 18-pound cock-a-poo may have eaten 5-6 pieces of dark chocolate about 5 hours ago. She is 9.5 years old and seems normal now. What should we monitor for and what precautions should we take?

We have a 2-month-old German Shepherd puppy named Sapphire. She came inside with oil on her paws and has vomited twice. The vomit contained food but was not liquidy or foamy. She did not eat anything unusual, but there was oil around her snout. Should I bring her to a vet for a check-up?

My dog, Rajah, has blood in his urine, a lack of appetite, difficulty walking, and is now shivering. I first noticed his decreased appetite about 4 days ago. He doesn't seem to be in pain, but I'm not sure of his exact age as he was a stray I adopted. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I have a 15-20 pound Chihuahua mix named Phoebee, who is 6 years old. She got into my trash in the car and ate approximately 1/4 of an extended-release Mucinex pill. It's been about an hour, and she's not acting her usual self but hasn't thrown up. What should I do?
