Stop! If a dog ate brownies that contain chocolate or cocoa powder, it could be potentially dangerous and even life-threatening. Chocolate contains a substance called theobromine, which is toxic to dogs in large amounts.
The amount of theobromine in chocolate can vary depending on the type and quality of the chocolate, but generally speaking, the darker the chocolate, the higher the amount of theobromine it contains.
What to do if my dog ate brownie?
If it was a chocolate brownie, stay alert to make sure if dog is showing any symptoms. Symptoms of chocolate toxicity in dogs may include vomiting, diarrhoea, restlessness, hyperactivity, tremors, seizures, and in severe cases, heart failure or death.
The severity of the symptoms depends on the amount of chocolate the dog has consumed and the size and weight of the dog. If you suspect that your dog ate browny or any other chocolate-containing products, it’s important to contact your veterinarian immediately. They may recommend inducing vomiting or other treatments to help reduce the absorption of theobromine in the dog’s body.
