What to do if your dog accidentally eats chocolate

If the dog ingests a very small amount of chocolate and the dog does not show any adverse symptoms, it is recommended that the owner give the dog plenty of water and help the dog induce vomiting, and then pay close attention to the dog's mental state and breathing. If it is a small dog, an elderly dog, or a dog with heart disease, no matter how much chocolate it eats, take it to the pet hospital for examination immediately. If it is a young adult large dog, talk to your veterinarian first before deciding whether to send it to a pet hospital for treatment.

If the dog ingests too much chocolate, vomiting should be induced immediately and then sent to the hospital for infusion, enema and other treatments. Since large amounts of chocolate can cause kidney failure in dogs, it is usually recommended that owners keep such substances out of the reach of dogs.

There are many types and brands of chocolate, and different types of chocolate contain different amounts of ingredients that are harmful to dogs. If we can know what type of chocolate the dog has eaten, we can tell the pet doctor in time, and they will give the best treatment suggestions according to the situation.

You can give your dog a spoonful of hydrogen peroxide. Of course, you must drink it with water. If the dog does not vomit, you must feed it again and induce vomiting again. After the dog eats chocolate, you can try to lead the dog to the lawn to exercise more and let the dog eat some grass. This can also induce vomiting. Take the dog for a continuous walk. If it doesn't get better for a long time, you can cook the mung beans in a casserole, fill the mung bean soup with a syringe and inject it into the mouth. This should be done slowly, which can promote digestion and allow the dog to excrete chocolate.
