My puppy just ate chocolate UPDATE pg 2

When I was pregnant with my youngest DD (now 5), our large lab (she's square, not rectangle in shape, if you get my drift) ate an ENTIRE BOX of Lady Godiva chocolates- chocolate, cardboard, plastic wrap and all. I had received the box as a gift, but had such severe morning sickness I couldn't even eat chocolate (yes- that bad).......but the worst part was that she showed NO signs of ill health AT ALL.....the remains of the cardboard and chocolate appeared- but no throwing up, no poop messes, no nothing. We were terribly worried (well, I admit I occilated between very worried and screaming at her "die, die"). She was just fine- but still eats anything. I am STILL mad at her about the loss of the chocolate......

It is amazing what pets can consume and survive! As the mother of 4 kids, 1 horse, 2 large dogs, 6 cats, 4 guinea pigs and a hamster (at least that's the current count, I think), I know how much worry our young charges can cause us. My family and I will keep your pup in our prayers. Some days I don't know who causes me more gray hairs- the husband, the kids or the pets!
 
Hi,

Poor, poor beagle!

She will be fine. Beagles are tough. My Sam has gotten into chocolate a couple times and been absolutely ok.

Beagles are so adept at getting lids off containers. I am always surprised what they can do. They are such persistent little guys.

Let us know how shes' doing.

She's home and doing fine......my CC on the other hand is going to have a seizure......they gave her the valium and after hearing the bill I was thinking that maybe I should take one....;) ;) ;)

Thanks for all your encouraging words.....
 

Yay,

Glad she's ok. Those vet bills are nasty.

Ahhh...glad the puppy will be ok! Let Zurg hug the puppy before you show him the bill!!!:p
 
Glad to hear that your puppy will be okay. I am sure you will have one quiet dog for a while... I remember how my kitty was after the valium my vet had to give once :)
 
Good, I'm really glad everything will be alright. :)
 
I'm glad all is good.

I hope that reading this thread doesn't make people think that chocolate is harmless to dogs. It is uncommon, but it CAN kill.
 
:bounce: YAY I am so glad the puppy is fine :bounce: You should take his vet bill out of his allowance;)
 
I'm glad to hear that your puppy is better. Thank goodness!
