My dog ate chocolate – a whole bar! What should I do?

[]

Answer

This is an emergency - please take your pet to your nearest emergency veterinary clinic immediately. Chocolate contains theobromine, which is toxic to dogs, and the amount ingested can cause serious symptoms ranging from vomiting and diarrhea to seizures, tremors, and even death. The size of your dog and the type of chocolate (darker is worse) also matters. Do not wait for symptoms to appear; immediate veterinary intervention is critical to induce vomiting or administer other treatments.
