Frequently asked questions
- Why is chocolate dangerous to dogs?
- Chocolate contains theobromine (and caffeine), which dogs metabolise much more slowly than humans. Theobromine can cause vomiting, diarrhoea, rapid heart rate, seizures, and death at high doses.
- What should I do if my dog ate chocolate?
- Call your vet or a pet poison hotline (e.g. ASPCA Animal Poison Control +1-888-426-4435 in the US) immediately. Do not wait for symptoms to appear.
