My dog, Paws, a 5-year-old Chihuahua Dachshund mix, was up early this morning whining and wouldn’t get up to walk. He just plopped back on his hind legs, and his tail is limp. He lets me move his legs but whines when I move his back right leg. His tail is limp, and he did pee and poop this morning. What could be wrong, and what should I do?

Our 84 lb dog, Goose, ate under 300 grams of chocolate protein powder about 7 hours ago. He had some diarrhea 4 hours ago but is acting fine. How do we know if he ingested enough chocolate to be harmful and what should we do to monitor his condition?
