Yeah we found out the hard way with Nickelodeaon ( our dog )
My Husband had baked a batch of chocolate fudge with macadamia nuts for xmas gifts a couple of years ago and Nicky some how had got into the boxes in the spare room, where they were being stored.
Cut a long story short.
she started vomiting alot
Well !!! of to the vet we went, and she is thankfully doing great !

Hmmmm...that's interesting, who would think fruits and vegetables could hurt a dog. I always hear how you were never supposed to feed you dog chocolate. I wonder what they base these things on?
My uncles dog ate a whole box of skor bars (i think they are similar to the heath bar you have in the US) and it didn't bother her one little bit. The dog we had growing up ate a whole tray of those foil covered easter eggs when he was a puppy (with the foil on them) and it didn't seem to bother him either.

Some dogs react to chocolate, which can be fatal. Others are just fine. I think it has something to do with metabolism? I'm always really careful with chocolate around my babies, who will eat anything off the floor or a reachable tabletop. I didn't know about nuts, however. My youngest had gotten a few almonds when they've dropped. I won't let that happen again!
I have a mini chocolate poodle and came home from dinner to find out that he ate a WHOLE dark chocolate toblerone (sp?)! I freaked out and called a 24 hr vet hotline, and they told me to call poison control. When I called them the guy's voice sounded like 'are you seriously gonna call poison control for a dog!' Anyways he told me it depends on the grade of chocolate/how much swallowed, and since it was just a toblerone bar it would be ok. THANKFULLY Teddy was ok.
