What it does
Your dog is whining, has the look on, and wags his
tail.First thing you think,HE WANTS CHOCOLATE.
Don't even think about grabbing that chocolate bar. It
could kill him! Most people know this but what they
don't know is what hurts your dog. Cocoa (coh-cow)
beans contain theobromine, a natural occurring
simulant .
Theobromine can cause more urination (peeing),
and messes with the central nervous system and
the heart muscle.
How to know
After couple hours your dog will start to puke, have
diarrhea, or hyperactivity. Later, your dog will
have an increased heart rate, and that will cause
arrhythmia, restlessness, hyperactivity, muscle twitches,
increased urination or excessive panting. And all this stuff can lead to hypothermia, muscle tremors,
seizures, coma and the most brutal of them all, death.
The least and most deadly
~ The least deadly chocolate is white chocolate with 1 mg of theobromine per ounce ~
~ The most deadly chocolate is baking chocolate with 450 mg of theobromine per ounce ~
Overall, Never Give Your Dog Chocolate!
