Chocolate contains theobromine, which is toxic to dogs in certain amounts. The severity of your dog's reaction can depend on their size and the amount of chocolate consumed. Look out for symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, increased heart rate, restlessness, or seizures, especially since a whole pack of brownies might be a considerable amount for some dogs.
If this is an emergency, please seek immediate veterinary care.
