Is chocolate harmful for dogs?

Answer by  Rathjinngmailcom (234)

Yes, Choclate is harmful to dogs because of a chemical called theobromine which is similar to caffiene. Theobromine becomes toxic when it reaches 100-150 milligrams per kilogram of body weight in a dog.

Yes! Do not give your dog chocolate, ever. Chocolate contains theobromine which is very lethal to dogs. Even small amounts will effect your dog and to much will kill them.

Yes, chocolate is very harmful to dogs. The higher the concentration of chocolate, the worse it is for them. If they eat something like a Hershey's bar it won't be as serious, but if they ate the same amount of baking chocolate it could do serious harm.

Chocolate is very dangerous for dogs, if injested they can become very sick or even die. It has a similar effect as cocaine in humans. If you dog accidentually ingests it contact you vet for instructions on what to do.
