Michele this is for you!!! Yesterday Winston got into a box of chocolate. He ate a few peanut butter cups and a few kit kat bars. When I got out of the shower I found all of the wrappers in the hallway. I smelled his breath and it was "chocolaty". I called the vet and they told me to give him 1/4 cup of hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting. He drank a little of it, then I had to use a syringe to force the rest of it into him. It worked very quickly, and the poor little guy vomited 7 or 8 times. What exactly does chocolate do to dogs? All I know is the books I have say it can be toxic/fatal. I must say it was easier to induce vomiting in him than it is in the ER for overdose patients!!!! I think I want to change professions. Do Vets hire RNs???
