During the week after Halloween, keep an eye on your dog as you go about your regular walks. Dogs love chocolate, but chocolate is toxic for them. So keep your eyes peeled for Fido and Fifi to make a dive for a few of those Hershey’s mini bars dropped by careless trick-or-treating children along the sidewalks.

Q. Is being sprayed by a skunk harmful to dogs? Two of my dogs was sprayed but I think one was sprayed in the mouth she was drooling really bad and foaming when it happened?
