Well, it actually depends what sort of chocolate and the amount the dog had consumed. I mean, if its a large amount of chocolate then there are possibilities.
One bar of chocolate from the shops wouldn't kill a dog, it would probably only give the dog a stomach ache and that's about it. Dogs have to consume a fair lot of chocolate to feel ill or feel any negative effects. Dark baker's chocolate is very toxic to ANY dog because it contains a large amount of caffeine and bromethalin. However, Milk Chocolate and white chocolate have hardly any caffeine in at all, so if dogs consume that, they will only experience diarrhoea and stomach aches.
Hope I helped! :)
It is not good for dogs to ingest significant amount of chocolate. The best thing to do would be to take your dog to a vet right away.
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.
pump its stomach NOW!
Call the vet so i does not get really sick and die.
It is very dangerous for a dog to eat chocolate it could die from eating lot of if u give it some its stomach might hurt after so don't even try giving the dog chocolate.
Because chocolate is the best thing in the world and they ate it a lot and traded it.
Your dog will probably get sick, depending on how much he/she drank. Symptoms include hyperactivity, muscle twitching, increased urination, increased heart rate, and increased blood pressure. Severe symptoms are vomiting, diarrhea, siezures, and possibly death. If your dog expresses any of these symptoms, call animal poison control at (888) 426-4435 or your local vet hospital. Hope I could help!!!
If your dog ate a chocolate bar then ring your vet immediately and they will tell you what to do. This is because chocolate contains, in addition to a high fat content, caffeine and theobromine, two different types of stimulants that affect the central nervous system and the heart muscle, as well as increasing the frequency of urination.
Well, chocolate is supposed to be " poisonous" to dogs, but if they only have a little bit it won't harm them. Say you dropped a piece of chocolate on the floor and your dog ate it, it would be okay as long as they didn't have a lot. Also, it depends on your dog. Maybe your dog gets sick because it licks up some milk. Really it is different for every dog, but chocolate is supposed to be " poisonous" so I recommend you don't give your dog chocolate, but it would be okay if you didn't mean to give it to him.
they ate cheese and rice and pickles and a lot of cake but it has to be chocolate or they puke
Chocolate is toxic to dogs and can cause the dog to die. This is because dogs are very sensitive to a toxin in chocolate called theobromine. Incidentally, this is also toxic to humans, but there isn't enough in most chocolates to cause a problem for humans. Theobromine is related to caffeine and is a stimulant. In dogs it can cause heart arrhythmias and heart palpatations, which can lead to death.
the dog may die depending on how much they ate and the smaller the dog the more risks! ~michelle More on this There really is not a lot of chocolate in a bag of chocolate cookies. Chocolate is bad for dogs but there are a few variables to consider before rushing the dog to the emergency Vet. A one pound bag of Oreo's contains less than one (1) ounce of chocolate. The toxic dose of Theobromine for dogs is 100-200 mgs per Kilogram of dog weight. Various reports by the ASPCA have noted problems at lower doses (some dogs are allergic to less than 100mgs per kilo but most are not) What does this mean? If your dog weighs 50lbs it would have to eat 3lbs of good quality chocolate to reach the 100 mg per kilo level. Watch the pooch for signs of distress,lethargy and urinary problems and keep it out of the cookies, but with any luck it will not suffer any ill effects.
