But this dog ate a lot of 'em!
Chocolate is indeed toxic to dogs, although not all dogs react as strongly. Most dogs who eat just a little chocolate don't require medical care. But some do, and a small number have died from it.
It's also toxic to cats. But that's not a big problem since cats lack the taste receptor for sweetness--poor dears! Therefore they're very unlikely to be interested in it unless they're starving. This is apparently true across the entire Felidae family, from tigers to lynxes.

He ate a possum once, he caught it, killed it, plucked it, and ate it's entire body and later shat out teeth and claws.
Interesting. I didn't know possums had feathers.

Two days ago my dog devoured and aluminum tray into pieces from 1/2 inch on I looked if he had a cut in his mouth I did not see any Y checked the stool fir blood I did not find any ( lucky ) and the pouch seems fine.
