My 80-pound labradoodle has been taking 300 mg of gabapentin every 12 hours for pain for the last 6 days. After the last pill, she became groggy and listless, and now she doesn't want to move or respond much. Is this dosage too high, should I stay up and monitor her, and is she in any danger? Should I give her the next dose in twelve hours, or can I stop the medication suddenly?

I have an almost 11-year-old boxer named Taz who has recently started leaving unusually large pee puddles in the house when we are not looking. This is a new behavior for him, and he has never done this before. He has no other behavioral changes or appetite changes, but he has a few fatty tumors that have been checked and are fine. What could be causing this and what should I do?
