Chocolate damages the stomach, which can not digest sugar. Actually sugar is not the culprit a chemical called theobromine is, dogs can digest sugar.

Why rottweiler dogs can not eat chocolate?

First, it's not just Rottweilers that can't (shouldn't) have chocolate - it is all dogs. Chocolate contains a small amount of a chemical called theobromine which is toxic to dogs - it causes organ failure and can cause death. The darker and more bitter the chocolate, the higher the concentration of theobromine, so baker's chocolate is more dangerous than a Hershey bar (although both are still bad).

How much chocolate and carmel could harm a 65 pound puppy she ate the wrapper and all off one of those little dove candies and I'm not sure how drastic the situation is?

Dogs arent as severely sensitive to chocolate as people make them out to be. The only way that amount of chocolate couold harm your dog is if they actually had an allergy to it not just the sensitivity that all dogs have. Your dog could probably eat a lb of milk chocolate and still be okay. Just remember the darker the chocolate the more sensitive dogs are to it. One of the most dangerous chocolate to feed is pure unsweetened baking chocolate. But one or two peices of candy arnt going to do any harm. She may puke up the wrapper or maybe even the chocolate later but I doubt any other harm will go to her. When I was little my parents dog used to like to climb onto the table and eat the choclate cake, he also did that with a 13x9 pan of brownies and didnt even get sick.
