@drwaqarkaramat_vet: Chocolate toxicity in dogs occurs because dogs metabolize theobromine and caffeine much more slowly than humans. The risk depends on the type of chocolate, the amount eaten, and the dog’s body weight. Common clinical signs include vomiting, diarrhea, hyperactivity, increased heart rate, tremors, and seizures. Dark chocolate and baking chocolate contain the highest concentrations of theobromine and are the most toxic. If a dog ingests chocolate, immediate veterinary assessment is recommended to reduce the risk of serious complications.
