My 20-22 lb dog, Ivy, ate about 1.5 oz of a 72% dark chocolate bar. She has not vomited yet, and it's been less than 20 minutes since she ate it. What should I do to help her, and what symptoms should I watch for?

My dog has been having frequent seizures despite being on medication (kappra and phenobarbital). Since 8 AM, she has had 9 seizures, and I am concerned about the lack of effective treatment at emergency hospitals. What should I do to manage her condition and find appropriate care?

My dog got into a small amount of buttercream icing and chocolate cake base. She was recently sick and had a collapse two weeks ago. Blood work showed possible low thyroid and a UTI. I'm afraid to induce vomiting and have an old bottle of activated charcoal. Should I be concerned about chocolate toxicity, and should I use the activated charcoal?
