I worked for a vet for years. PLEASE LISTEN TO ME: dark chocolate is 10x worse then the consumption of any other type of chocolate. Please call a vet immediately as I knew of several animals who died rather painful deaths because their owners didn't know any better. Look out for HUGE warning signs like hyperactivity, extreme panting, or anything else out of the ordinary. This can and WILL cause kidney failure if not treated IMMEDIATELY. The amount consumed versus the size of the dog matters very little when it comes to dark chocolate (milk chocolate is less worrisome).

Call the vet, the smaller the dog, the worse it could be. They will know.
Sorry but dogs are known to die if they eat chocolate grapes or raisins
How much did it eat, how much does it weigh, and is it currently showing odd behavior. These variables dictate the difference in between stomach ache and flatulence, or a trip to vet, most likely the former.
Don't worry!!! My dog ate a brownie once and she's healthy! And she's a small dog too!
Omg irony! This exact same thig happened to my chihuahua on Thursday, take it to the vet! Don't wait, they will make your dog vomit it up and give it fluids and it should be okay but if you wait too long it will most likely die, I'll be praying! <3
+dark chocolate is the worst out there for dogs
what kind of dog is it?
My dog had a big bag of mini Reese's and he didn't even throw up
call the vet. dark chocolate is very bad for any dog no matter the size.
Chocolate contains theobromine. A naturally occurring stimulant found in the cocoa bean, theobromine increases urination and affects the central nervous system as well as heart muscle. While amounts vary by type of chocolate, it's the theobromine that is poisonous to dogs.
You can recognize that your dog has eaten a toxic dose of chocolate from the symptoms. Within the first few hours, the evidence includes vomiting, diarrhea or hyperactivity. As time passes and there's increased absorption of the toxic substance, you'll see an increase in the dog's heart rate, which can cause arrhythmia, restlessness, hyperactivity, muscle twitching, increased urination or excessive panting.
This can lead to hyperthermia, muscle tremors, seizures, coma and even death.
Dark chocolate is the worst kind for a dog. GET THAT DOG TO A VET if you see ANY of these symptoms!!
Hey, is your dog alright now? I hope so. :(
TexasDogMom: She's not old enough to drive, which means someone else had to take her dog to the vet. And, btw, if Ask strictly wasn't for chatting, the mods wouldn't allow it.
It will probably start feeling sick and kill over. I am not really sure why dogs die from chocolate, I just know they do. Get it to the vet before something does happen.
dogs can die from eating chocolate, grapes, and raisins but dogs can have a little of it and it won't kill them, but don't give them too much or they will die
Dark chocolate is the worst kind of chocolate you could have allowed your dog to get. Get him to the vet right away. Don't take time to induce vomiting. The vet will induce vomiting and start the dog on Vitamin K intravenously. The Vitamin K helps support the kidneys, which are the first organs to be attacked by the chocolate.
In the future, if you can't keep the damned chocolate and other things that will kill your dog, away from your dog, you should seriously consider getting a goldfish, and leaving the dogs for other, more responsible people.
