What if your dog ate some chocolate and it has already been six months?

Similar questions: dog ate chocolate months.

If you dog ate chocolate six months ago, and is still alive, then the chocolate is not going to hurt him. That time, anyway. Just don't let him eat it again.

Just because it was ok once doesn't mean it won't kill him the next time.

I heard a vet say that it's actually the dark chocolate that's toxic for dogs. Once again, piss poor, incorrect, and possibly fatal advice from the know it all DanZee - who clearly knows nothing about this issue. Any credible vet will tell you that no chocolate should EVER been given to an animal.NEVER.

Please ignore DanZees advice. It is 100 percent incorrect.

My border collie broke into a box of christmas chocolates late one evening. Within 30 minutes it was like she had od'd on speed. Up and down the stairs, 5 mile run at 3am.

She was fine the next day and the vet did say that dark chocolate (which it was) is more toxic. All chocolate is bad, though.

Chocolate contains a chemical called theobromine, which dogs are unable to digest; instead, it becomes a poison in their system. HOWEVER, the whole thing requires a certain concentration, so whether the chocolate is toxic depends on two things: size of dog and amount of chocolate it ate. You have provided neither piece of information, so your question is unanswerable (except that you provided a time frame, leaving us to guess that if it's still alive six months later, it'll probably be alive six months from now.) .

I use to feed my dog chocolates all the time. Your dog is fine. I heard a vet say that it's actually the dark chocolate that's toxic for dogs.

But feeding them sweets is a bad idea in general.

Chocolate is derived from the roasted seeds of Theobroma cacao, which contains certain properties that can be toxic to animals: caffeine and theobromine. If ingested, these two ingredients can also lead to various medical complications and may even prove fatal for your dog. The amount and type of chocolate ingested is also important, as they are the determining factors for the severity of the toxicity.

The three types of chocolate that you must be aware of are:1. Milk Chocolate – Mild signs of toxicity can occur when 0.7 ounces per pound of body weight is ingested; severe toxicity occurs when two ounces per pound of body weight is ingested (or as little as one pound of milk chocolate for a 20-pound dog).2. Semi-Sweet Chocolate – Mild signs of toxicity can occur when 0.3 ounce per pound of body weight is ingested; severe toxicity occurs when one ounce per pound of body weight is ingested (or as little as six ounces of semi-sweet chocolate for a 20-pound dog).3.

Baking Chocolate – This type of chocolate has the highest concentration of caffeine and theobromine. Therefore, as little as two small one-ounce squares of baking chocolate can be toxic to a 20-pound dog (or 0.3 ounce per pound of body weight).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
