  Good joke but unrealistic. Chocolate bar is maybe new invented but cocoa isn’t. And I bet they knew how it works on humans best friend.

    The dog would be fine. It takes a huge amount of chocolate to hurt a dog - I was freaking out once when my dog ate some chocolate but I learned that a 30 pound dog would have to eat an entire full-size Hershey’s Bar in order to experience any symptoms at all (and they would be mild and temporary).

      an entire full-size Hershey’s Bar

      This says nothing. Hershey’s bars have so little cocoa that that they’re not even allowed to be called chocolate in the EU.

      Milk chocolate has very low toxicity for dogs, it’s the higher cacao content dark chocolate that is a real problem. Regarding onions, while the issue is common to all alliums, garlic is the most dangerous, with toxicity starting at just 5mg per kg

  I offered my dog a chocolate once and he said “do i look like a goddamn fatass?” and then slapped it out of my hand and slammed the door

  From what I’ve learnt, it’s grapes (raisins, sultanas etc) that you should be worried about feeding to your dogs.

  They are very toxic and tend to do permanent damage even in small amounts, particularly to the kidneys.

    Toothpaste, too. Gum. Sugar-free cough drops. Xylitol is crazy bad for them.

      Cyanide as well, rather dangerous for dogs.

    I thought the issue with grapes was that they are a choking hazard for dogs

      No, unfortunately its the tartaric acid, causes kidney failure. So meringue and Tamarind can cause the same issues.

      The issue is that either your dog is susceptible to it or not, and there is no way to know until after as there is no safe limit when they are.
