From what I understand Dark Chocolate has more nutritional and beneficial value than light chocolate to include: * it stimulates endorphin production, which gives a feeling of pleasure * it contains serotonin, which acts as an anti-depressant * it contains theobromine, caffeine, and other substances which are stimulants A caution:

Theobromine is toxic to cats, dogs, horses, parrots and voles. So much so that the USDA is investigating its use as a coyote poison.

According to Merck Veterinary Manual a toxic dose of chocolate for dogs is about 1.3 g/kg body weight.

For humans the toxic dose of chocolate is about 10 kg. at a sitting. You'd have to work at it!
