My dog, Wacey, a 6-year-old Chihuahua/Terrier mix weighing 10 lbs, ate canned peas and is now exhibiting neurological symptoms such as enlarged pupils, pacing, shaking more than normal, and acting fearful. His sister, who also ate the peas, is acting normally. What could be the issue and what should I do?

I have a seven-year-old German Shepherd named Koda. He recently experienced a sudden episode where he lost use of his hind legs and was flopping around under my bed. After calming him down, he seemed to snap out of it and returned to normal behavior. Koda has had sniffles or reverse sneezes for about six weeks, which the vet wasn't overly concerned about. He had another seizure on August 20th but has been fine since. What could be causing these episodes, and what should I do next?

When my dog lies on his back, I can feel a bone-like circle in the middle of his rib cage, which seems to be where the sternum ends or the xiphoid process is. Should I assume this is the xiphoid process, or would I not be able to feel it if it is?

What is an anti-pyretic for dogs that we might be able to use from around the house for humans? Our dog is running a high temperature and we need advice on temperature-reducing products, as well as ongoing necessary or beneficial treatments that could improve his quality of life, increase his lifespan, and protect him from any likely complications or outcomes from a black cobra snake bite 12 months ago.
