The minimum fatal chocolate dose is 100-200 mg per kg, varying with weight. Chocolate’s theobromine and caffeine cause vomiting, diarrhea, excitement and convulsions, and overdose can kill. If ingested, induce vomiting at once and rush to the vet.
Small dogs are most endangered; the larger the dog, the less likely to die.
