My dog, a Silky Collie cross Terrier weighing around 18 to 20 kg, has eaten a Christmas stocking full of 12 small milk chocolates. She has not vomited and has been playing with her toy. What should I do?

My dog, Lulu, age 11, has slowed down tremendously over the last two days, showing signs of shivering, off balance, and difficulty jumping up stairs. Her belly appears swollen, but she has been able to poop and pee. She refuses to drink water and only eats yummy table scraps. She whimpers if moved quickly and her motor skills are very slow. Her gums are pink, and she humps her back up but does not drag her feet. She is not on any pain medications, but I gave her Benadryl to help her sleep. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, Margot, a 4 1/2-year-old medium-sized pit mix, has been exhibiting signs of pain when jumping onto furniture, becoming less playful, more anxious, and generally 'down'. She whimpers when jumping and is hesitant when picked up. What could be causing this and what should I do?
