Chocolate is terrible for dogs. Unless you want to see your dog in pain, DON'T GIVE THEM CHOCOLATE!

White chocolate is the least toxic, moving on to Milk Chocolate, then dark, then bakers is bad, bad, bad because 1oz will kill a 10 pound dog. Cocoa mulch is bad, too.

Should your dog ingest chocolate (like mine did) make the dog throw up IMMEDIATELY! Mine ate one quarter of a freshly baked chocolate cake with 4 full squares of bakers chocolate between the frosting and the cake.

However, within the first half hour IF you get the dog to throw up, you should be in the clear. NO WATER! It will make the chocolate pass through into the intestines faster and, therefore, won't come up. To make a dog chuck use hydrogen peroxide (the kind used for cuts only NOT THE KIND FOR HAIR!), about one tablespoon in the back of the throat. A syringe or turkey baster is useful. Wait five minutes. NOTE dogs do NOT like an audience whilst puking, so watch out the window. IF that doesn't work, a tablespoon of salt in the back of their throat and wait five minutes and if that doesn't work, repeat hydrogen peroxide.

Chocolate WILL kill your dog, and its not pretty. If too much time has lapsed, take it to a vet .

If the dog hadn't done that and school was in all year round, I wouldn't have been distracted enough to have left the cake on the counter for three minutes.

No. Chocolate is very dangerous to cats. A cat that has eaten chocolate and is exhibiting symptoms such as vomiting/diarrhea, hyperactivity/restlessness should be taken to the vet immediately. In larger doses, or very strong chocolate can easily be fatal to a cat.
