My dog ate some dark chocolate. 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 dark chocolate has a higher concentration. Symptoms can include vomiting, diarrhea, restlessness, increased thirst, tremors, and in severe cases, seizures or heart problems. The severity depends on the amount consumed and the size of your dog. Timely veterinary intervention is crucial to induce vomiting or provide other supportive care to prevent serious complications.
