    It is Baker's Chocolate...

    Baker's chocolate is the type that you need to worry about. I made a frantic call to the emergency vet one night after my Heidi ate quite a bit of chocolate frosting. The vet on call said to keep an eye on her, but no need to rush her in if it wasn't baker's chocolate. She was miserable all night (ugh- doggie gas) but she survived just fine.

    Heidi did have to have vomitting induced as a puppy when she ate an entire Kit Kat bar and WRAPPER! The vet was more worried about the foil wrapper than the kit kat. She also had a marble surgically removed, that came with a $400 bill.

    can't you guys teach your dogs to open the candy wrappers first? Sounds a lot less expensive!

    Years ago I had a 150 pound Malamute who reached up and took the Thanksgiving turkey off of the kitchen island and devoured it without leaving a trace. Nothing like walking into the kitchen and seeing there is no turkey. Took me awhile to figure out what happened.

    I used to buy canned cat food by the case and stack it outside by the back door. Then I got up in the morning and found cans with huge tooth marks in them and the insides sucked out. I eventually figured out it was a bear. I couldn't blame that one on the dogs because they didn't have access to that area.

    Molly, Tyson and Buster

    Molly was a 65 lb coonhound that stole everything she could find to eat. If you turned for a second , your sandwich was gone. She stole a hot dog right out of a unsuspecting child's hand and took a roast off the couter and ate it.

    Tyson was a 130 bullmastiff. He never ate anything unless it was given to him. Until I came home one day and went up for a nap without emptying my tupperware containers from my backpack. I had leftover fish that day. Tyson pull open my back pack, pulled everything out and chewed the tupperware open to get at a bit of skin inside. After that he would go after tupperware like there was no tomorrow. All my tupperware had HUGE fang marks in it.

    Buster is my neighbor's Jack Russel he ate one and a half 10 to 12 ounce steaks in the back of the truck while my neighbor was driving home from the grocery store. She didn't even notice until she got home. Buster was pretty happy.

    I love dogs. They do the cutest things.
