Today, my dog wouldn't stop pestering me while I was eating some chocolate mousse. I tried to get him to leave me alone for a bit by pretending to throw the mousse far away. The pot stayed in my hand, but I covered the furniture in chocolate mousse. My dog enjoyed cleaning it up. FML

Chocolate can kill dogs so you might wanna take him to the vet

Alan, it says "covered the furniture" that's doesn't sound like a "speck" to me. Plus it could be a small dog and even a little bit is dangerous for them.

Chocolate damages their nervous system, it's a lot more dangerous for dogs than you think.

and yet a lot less dangerous than *You* think.

Theobromine is a toxin much like caffeine. It doesn't damage your nervous system.

It actually DOES affect the central nervous system and can result in diarrhea and excessive urination which leads to dehydration.

It doesn't damage the nervous system, but it certainly does affect it. Just because it's like caffeine to us doesn't mean it's the same for dogs.

Perhaps you should raise your dog. Pets needs to be raised as well. I can promise you that my children will never beg and I won't have any pets to do it either. Bad manners.

at least you don't have to clean the mousse

A big dog can take A LOT of chocolate, but a small dog can take the equivalent of maybe a small Hershey bar before it's sick. I have seen a large dog devour a good size piece of chocolate cake no problem, but I have also seen a small dog eat a bag of M&M' s and get rushed to the vet. Size does matter

#36, my wife tells me that all the time.

1oz per 10lbs yes size does matter. :-b. BTW first reply +1 love the joke :)

It takes like 30 pounds of chocolate to kill a 100 pound dog. He'll be fine.

Non-dog owners are always surprisingly audible in telling you how irresponsible you are and how to take care of your dog. Normal dogs don't usually die from the accidental ingestion of some chocolate, it's just not a good idea to feed your chihuahua a box full.

Today, my dog ate chocolate mousse and died. FML ._.
