My dog chewed up a package of firecrackers about an hour ago. I'm not sure if he ingested any or just chewed the packaging. He is not showing any visible signs of discomfort, but I want to ensure he will be okay. What should I do?

My 10-month-old yellow lab puppy, Lucy, has had 3 episodes of acting drunk, including falling over, being unstable, and head bobbing, which last about an hour each. The last episode occurred 20 minutes after she ate some possibly fermented Bradford pear berries. She weighs 55 pounds, is up to date on her vaccines, and has had normal blood work and ultrasounds. What could be causing these episodes and what should be the next steps?

My 10-year-old red-eared slider turtle, Rocket, has been lethargic and less hungry for a couple of days. There have been no changes in routine except for a bigger tank about two months ago. What could be causing this and what should I check or do?
