Chocolate is toxic to dogs and could cause a medical emergency. Signs of chocolate poisoning usually appear within 6 to 12 hours.

The toxic component of chocolate is theobromine.

Humans easily metabolize theobromine, but dogs process it much more slowly, allowing it to build up to toxic levels in their system.

A small amount of chocolate will probably only give your dog an upset stomach with vomiting or diarrhea.

Since chocolate is dear to humans in every house and is easy to find, it is mortal for dogs. Chocolate that has beneficial human health benefits will kill dogs. Chocolate contains theobromine (methylxanthines), which is fatal for dogs. The toxicity requires chocolate powder used in chocolates.
