My 3-month Yorkie licked chocolate cookie. Should I be concerned?

The amount of actual cocoa in this type of candy is very small, and won't cause a problem. It is possible (though not likely) that she may develop gastroenteritis, or even possibly pancreatitis, just due to the amount of sugar and fat; but NOT from the chocolate. If she starts vomiting or develops watery, volumous diarrhea or becomes lethargic, take her to the vet. If she has some mild diarrhea, feed her a bland diet of chicken and rice and give her 24-48 hours to improve. thanks for asking Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!

Pepe will likely be fine unless he is unusually sensitive. White chocolate has the lowest concentration of the chocolates. He may experience some vomiting or diarrhea or he may have no signs at all. To be safe, watch for signs of toxicity such as tremoring, seizures and hyper excitability. If you want to be proactive in regards to possible GI upset, you can feed him a bland diet of 25% boiled white meat chicken and 75% plain boiled white rice tonight and tomorrow morning. If you see anything worrisome, head to the emergency clinic. I hope this is helpful and please feel free to post any additional questions!

I’m sorry your pups got into the chocolate. I’m glad it was a relatively small amount. If your tiny Yorkie mix ate all that chocolate he could potentially have some adverse effects including increased heart rate and vomiting, diarrhea. The larger dog would likely have much more mild, if any, signs, such as intestinal upset. If there s a chance the smaller dog ate all of the chocolate or if either is showing signs of aggitation, I would bring him to your vet ASAP. They may want to consider inducing vomiting and can evaluate the heart rate as well. Here is a chocolate calculator you can use as well: http://veterinaryclinic.com/chocolate/calc.html

Because Domino only licked it, he would not have consumed enough chocolate to cause any toxicity, so it's not a problem. I would caution about giving him milk, however, as this causes GI upset in dogs and can make him vomit and have diarrhea. It's not recommended to give milk when dogs consume chocolate, as it does nothing to help with the symptoms of chocolate toxicity.

Glad to help you! Thank you for giving me Doug's weight and approximate amount of chocolate he ate. With his weight and the amount he ate, you will see minimal to no reaction. There is a potential for an upset stomach, but it's not likely, and Doug should be just fine :-)

Hello.. There are absolutely no concerns about Yusi licking a little cake batter. There is not nearly enough chocolate to cause any symptoms in this small amount. Yusi will be fine. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It is was milk chocolate then I think that Moose should be fine. Toxicity is based on type of chocolate and the weight of the amount eaten. Watch fro tummy upset: vomit, diarrhea, lethargy, not want to eat. I wish you and Moose the best!
