I knew that dogs shouldn't eat chocolate but I didn't know about onions.

Interesting that the types of chocolate I like best are the most toxic to dogs:

The risk of your dog becoming sick from ingesting chocolate depends on the type and amount of chocolate consumed and your dog’s weight. The concentrations of these toxic substances vary among different types of chocolate. Here are a few types of chocolate listed in order of theobromine content:

Cocoa powder (most toxic)
Unsweetened baker’s chocolate
Semisweet chocolate
Dark chocolate
Milk chocolate

My last dog Rollins ate a big chunk of a huge hershey bar years ago...I was worried about him but fortunately he was ok.

Since dogs eat anything they can get, dog owners have to make sure that no chocolate is lying around.
