My dog, Roxie, a 7-year-old weighing 43lbs, found an empty wrapper of a single piece of Trident cinnamon gum containing xylitol. I'm unsure if she ingested it, but she is acting normally and this occurred about 5 hours ago. Should I be concerned about potential side effects, and if so, what steps should I take?

My Cockapoo, Tommy, ate chocolate on Friday and has been experiencing diarrhea since then. He also ate rice and chicken yesterday, which he kept down, but had severe diarrhea again last night. He was taken to the vet, where his vitals were okay except for a slight fever, but there was a long wait. What should I do to help him?

My 3-year-old, 33 lb dog, PJ, ate a whole box of 32 chocolate chip cookies about an hour ago. He seems fine, but should we monitor him, and what should we do if he shows any signs of distress?

My 9-month-old lab puppy, Mooney, bit into a bag of calcium hypochlorite pool shock and may have gotten a few crystals in his mouth. He weighs about 60 to 65 pounds and seems fine with no burns in his mouth or vomiting. What should I do?

My dog has allergies. Her skin on her back gets flaky and very itchy, she chews the hair off and sometimes the hair falls out. Under her neck, it gets very red at times and also has some hair loss at times. Her ears also get sore and itchy. She took an antibiotic called Bactrim DS that contains Sulphur, which helped temporarily. Is it the sulphur that helped, and is there something OTC I can get that contains it? I have tried giving her Benadryl and other antihistamines, but they donโt do anything.
