Good joke but unrealistic. Chocolate bar is maybe new invented but cocoa isn't. And I bet they knew how it works on humans best friend.
The dog would probably be fine. It takes a lot of chocolate to hurt a dog - I was freaking out once when my dog ate some chocolate but I learned that a 30-pound dog would have to eat an entire full-size Hershey's Bar in order to experience any symptoms at all (and they would be mild and temporary). The same thing is true with onions BTW - fried onions can be dangerous because a dog could conceivably eat a lot, but raw onion isn't unless the dog eats multiple whole onions for some reason.
This says nothing. Hershey's bars have so little cocoa that that they're not even allowed to be called chocolate in the EU.
Milk chocolate has very low toxicity for dogs, it's the higher cacao content dark chocolate that is a real problem. Regarding onions, while the issue is common to all alliums, garlic is the most dangerous, with toxicity starting at just 5mg per kg
During a visit, my mother’s and my dog ate some chocolate cake that the wind blew off a table. We notice it in 10-15 mins, vet said just bring them in to induce vomiting. We did that, they got an injection each, and vomited out everything soon.
In practice, vets want to take no risks by calculaing/guessing exact cocoa content, the best is just to have them vomit as soon as you can.
And then pat their heads afterwards 🐶
Then give them a treat.
My wife's dog once ate (and passed) an underwire bra in full with no issues
Could she still wear the bra?
The bra did not fair well on its journey ..
