My dog, Miggy, a 10-month-old mixed breed weighing 44 lbs, ate a large amount of dry dog food (possibly 10 or more cups, which is 4x his normal daily amount). He vomited about 3-4 cups of food and has been drooling, unusually mellow, and his stomach looks big. He pooped and peed, and his breathing was faster initially but is now normal. What should I do?

My dog, Lennox, a 5-year-old Jack Russell, suddenly started panting, being wobbly, and drooling excessively. He also threw up large amounts for his size and has been twitching slightly. His eyes look unusual, and he is weak. What could be causing these symptoms, and what immediate actions should I take?

My 11-year-old dog, Tonka, was just diagnosed with a collapsed trachea. He struggles to breathe, especially at night, and has a prescription for hydrocodone for his cough, which doesn't seem to help. Is he supposed to be constantly struggling to breathe, and is it safe to give him human cough syrup? Additionally, he seems scared and hides during his fits. Is he suffering?

My 20 lb dog Daisy, who is 12 years old and has arthritis, ate a large Hershey's milk chocolate kiss (41g) about an hour ago. She seems hyperactive but otherwise okay, with a normal heart rate. Should I be concerned, and what should I watch for?

My 65 lbs dog ate a 10 oz bag of chocolate, which is a mix of milk and dark chocolate. Should I induce vomiting at home, and if so, how should I do it?

My dog has vomited three times today. The vomit is chunky with food in it, and yesterday it had paper in it. The dog's name is Hemingway, and he is almost two years old. He is still drinking and eating. What should I do?
