    As an aside, I think it's interesting to note how many dogs have eaten chocolate (our terrier included) and been fine . . . which says to me that the chocolate we buy and eat is probably pretty poor quality chocolate, by "gourmet chocolate" standards since it contains so little chocolate liquor! We have a chocolate tempering machine (haven't used it for years though) and we used to buy fine chocolate in bulk to melt in it for dipping things for parties, and that stuff was GOOD. It was to a Hershey's bar what French champagne is to box-o-wine! Heh, heh, but I have a cabinet full of 50% off grocery store Christmas chocolate none the less! And it's out of reach of the dogs and the kids[;)]

    Kato polished off a sleeve of Oreo cookies a while back and he was fine.  It made for a crumby mess, but it didn't phase him.  I guess the chocolate content in Oreo's is minute anyway.

    Yup Crusher at most of a Caramilk bar when he was a few months old. He was fine. The only big drawback was that it seemed to give him a taste for the stuff and he will still to this day, beg for chocolate, and he doesn't beg for anything...

     
    Chocolate is addictive for humans as well as dogs[;)]

    I remember the time my mom's Brittany ate a whole bag of Hershey's Kisses. We had a really sparkly lawn that week [:D]

    Sophie is okay, thank the lord[:)]What really had me worried was because I was pretty sure it was dark chocolate which I've heard is much more toxic to dogs than regular milk chocolate, anyways a big thanks to everybody And I will be saving some of the articles you guys posted just incase she gets in chocolate again. Geese I love this forum[:)]

    Im so glad she is okay! Now that shes tasted it, make sure you keep it well away!
     
    My fathers pit bull ate half a bag of M&M's as a wee pup and she got a nasty taste for them. Even in old age she would whine and beg like a pup for a piece of chocolate. I'd always give her a few flakes of Cocoa Pebbles (I was a kid!) and she would have just the nastiest gas throughout the day.

    Glad to hear that she's alright. They're good at giving us quite the scare occasionally, huh? [:)]

    It'll cost you a little, but you can call 1-800-ANI-HELP (ASPCA Poison control hotline) and they can tell you how toxic that product is.

    My aunt's dog ate a pound of $40 chocolates one night. He was somehow fine. And my aunt was devistated about her $40 chocolates. >.<

    Sophie is okay, thank the lord

     
    That's good to hear. It must have been as we figured it to be. That she didn't get enough or any in her system before vomiting, therefore limiting exposure to absorption.
     
    I like happy endings.

    Yes they definitely can scare us, I was just incredibily scared that in the next minute or two she'd have a horrible adverse reaction like seizures etc.  I like Happy endings  too!
