My dog, Kita, a 4.5-year-old 56 lbs dog, bit into a non-moisture packet (oxygen absorber) containing brown contents. She chewed on it and punctured the package, ingesting less than 10% of the contents. The packet had been exposed to air for around 10-12 hours. What should we watch for, and is there any immediate action needed?

Hello, I have a question/concern about my dog's post-surgery incision. There seems to be what looks like an abscess, and he was neutered about 3 weeks ago. I noticed the redness about a week ago, but the abscess started forming about 2 days ago. My dog has licked the area a bit after his surgery, and his incision from day one didn’t look right to me. What should I do?
