Best Answer

Ice cream is pretty bad for the dog already but chocolate ice cream is especially unhealthy. The cause of this is that chocolate contains an ingredient called Theobromine, which is toxic to dogs. However, if you do like to treat your dog with tasty snacks, I would recommend a brand of ice cream for dogs called Frosty Paws.

Why do some dogs tolerate chocolate?

Chocolate is NEVER good for dogs, but sometimes it's not bad enough to be noticed. It's all about the size of the dog, the type and the amount of chocolate it has eaten. Dark chocolate, small dog - doesn't take much to be dangerous. Big dog, milk chocolate - not that dangerous.

What happens if a dog eats 3 pieces of chocolate?

Chocolate is poisonous to dogs, so this could be dangerous for the dog. It would depend on what type of chocolate the dog ate. Dark chocolate or chocolate with lots of cocoa in it is the most dangerous, with milk chocolate being less dangerous and white chocolate being the least dangerous. The size of the dog would also affect how dangerous it is, so if a big dog ate 3 pieces of chocolate it might be ok, while it could be very dangerous if a small dog ate 3 pieces of chocolate. The best thing to do is to keep an eye on your dog for 24 hours after he/she ate chocolate and if the dog shows signs of nausea, being wobbly or drinking a lot of water then the dog should be taken to the vet immediately.
