Yes, chocolate is toxic to dogs.


Is it actually toxic? I had always heard that chocolate causes their hearts to race and could give them a stroke. I had not heard that it was actually poisonous. If it is, what quanities and why isn't poisonous to us. Of course my wife says this stuff is pure poison to her.

Our dogs have had chocolate on occasion with no ill effects. In fact I know of one german shepard that got into a birthday party pinata before the party started and ate the whole damn thing, paper mache and all!

Cheers, Al
