My Shiba Inu, Snickers, is aggressive toward large dogs. The aggression started when he was 2 or 3 years old. He was initially kept outside on a chain but is now an inside dog that needs to be separated from other dogs in the house. I've tried introducing him to an older, more experienced dog, but he remains aggressive, especially toward younger, more energetic dogs. What can be done to help Snickers with his aggression?

My 11-year-old dog, who weighs 55 pounds, just threw up after possibly eating one chocolate chip about 4 hours ago. The vomit contained soft, spongy-looking food and the dog was acting normal. Should I be concerned about chocolate toxicity, and is there anything else I should watch for or do?

My dog, Maggie, has a scratch on her eye that has been bothering her on and off for a few days. She was tearing and squinting, and now it's bothering her again. What can I do to help her and should I take her to the vet?
