My dogs stole my chocolate and ate it. One dog is 15 pounds and the other is 10 pounds. I don't know who ate more, but the 15-pound dog tends to eat everything. The chocolate was a palm-sized Santa, and it was just eaten now. What should I do?

Our 13-year-old Husky, Brody, had diarrhea on Sunday morning. We switched him to plain boiled chicken and rice, but he had no bowel movement until mid-day today, when he had another episode of diarrhea with mucus. Brody takes a daily thyroid medication and was recently taking Dasuquin, which we stopped on Sunday. What could be causing this and what should we do?
