My dog ate chocolate last night. He is a Lhasapoo mix, about 35 lbs, and was hyperactive and jumpy. We saw a bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips on the ground with 1/4 of it empty. He hasn't vomited. What should we do?

My dog, Brownie, is having a reaction to Temaril-P and is also on Alprazolam for anxiety. The foot swelling that Temaril-P was prescribed for has already gone down. Is it safe to wean off Temaril-P early, and should I consider adjusting his anxiety medication?

What is the white/gray thing above my dog’s two teeth? She’s eating and drinking normally, playing normally, and shows no signs of pain. I thought plaque was yellow and brown, but this looks different. Should I be concerned, and what should I do about it?

My dog, Maizzy, a 5-year-old spayed female black pug, is having trouble making a bowel movement. She has been straining to defecate since this morning, has not eaten or drunk anything, vomited with no content, and has not passed any stool to check for blood. She has been very healthy up to this issue and is not on any medications. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Roman, a 2-year-old, 90 lbs healthy dog, ate a 3-5 inch rib bone about 15 minutes ago. He has not vomited, is not choking, and has drank water and eaten kibble without any signs of panic. What should I do to ensure he passes the bone safely and what signs should I watch for?
