My smaller sized dog, Buddy, ate a significant amount of hard plastic from a toy about 10 minutes ago. He has not vomited and is acting normal. Should I induce vomiting, and if so, how should I do it? If inducing vomiting doesn't work, should I take him to a vet immediately?

My dog, Cujo, a 7-year-old Maltese/Yorkie weighing about 8-9 lbs, ate about a spoonful of cooked maple flavored oatmeal that I had added a little sugar to. It happened about 5 minutes ago, and he hasn't thrown up. Is this a cause for concern, and is there anything specific I should check or do?

My 9-year-old Yorkie, Turbo, is exhibiting erratic behavior including uncontrollable running, sudden lying down with legs behind him, and twirling in circles. He has a history of breathing issues and trachea collapse when excited, but this behavior is new and has been ongoing for about an hour. What could be causing this behavior and what immediate steps can I take to help him?
