My smaller dog, Merle, ate a significant amount of rawhide and became almost unconscious. He has since regained motor control but is vomiting water and passing small amounts of blood.

My 6-month-old Frenchton (a mix between a Boston Terrier and a French Bulldog) might have eaten one of my Ambien 10 mg sleeping pills. I made her throw up twice, but there was nothing in her vomit. She weighs about 18 lbs and seems fine now, but I am worried. What should I do?
