lukasmom Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 My 3 years old just ate one Hershey Kiss that was in the foil wrapper. Do I need to take her to the vet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinw Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I wouldn’t bother. My guys have eaten much more than that without problems.

greysmom Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Watch for the foil wrapper though. It's possible - though unlikely - to cause a blockage. If she begins vomiting or hasn't pooped in a while (like more than a day) I would go to the vet. This *probably* won't happen though.

Hubcitypam Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Not at all. One milk chocolate kiss won't hurt. You may see the foil in her poo, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTRAWLD Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Nah. A 70lb dog vs a couple grams of choco is ok. It's the foil that will be the fun part.

lukasmom Posted November 30, 2017 Author Share Posted November 30, 2017 Thank you so much for your replies. I think I have a little thief on my hands. No wonder she came out of our prison program! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreytTerp Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 It happens...Marvin downed a full bag of Dove dark chocolates, and a ton of other chocolates after he jumped a gate (never before, never since) and got into what we thought was a secure stash. We ended up giving him peroxide to get it all back the minute we returned home just to be safe, but one kiss in a greyhound should be ok. You'll see the foil tomorrow...

schnookums Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 If it's any consolation, I had a dog eat a balloon once, a white one.

Brandiandwe Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 What color wrapper? Brace yourself: red foil in output is alarming. Don't ask me how I know. I see your red foil and raise you red wax which was around Babybel cheese. The colour and texture were...... not pleasant...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanTanSnuggles Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 This will gross you out. Back in the late 80's we had our first girl greyhound. She was a wild girl. Very cat like. Very much a tomboy and independent. She hunted everything. But never left home. She was so awesome. This was before there was the internet in our area.We got her for free. They did not give much information back then. Just a few handwritten note scratches. We were walking along the wooded trail and my husband looked at her butt and something was coming out of it. This is crazy. It was the end of a small hemp rope. No idea where it came from. She was trying to go, so he said he just had to do what he had to do. He pulled it out and it was about six inches long. She made one sound like whooooooo and it was over. No problems ever with her butt. We missed a bullet on that one for sure. But a little chocolate probably did not hurt, not like that rope anyway. Look for strange sounds when it comes out. to follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiveRoooooers Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Thank you so much for your replies. I think I have a little thief on my hands. No wonder she came out of our prison program! How did she ever get parole? She'll be fine! There are multiple threads here about the adventures of Paddy Mayhem's ingestions and subsequent, ahem, colorful poops. The boy ate every color of basket muzzle until deciding that turquoise was his color. Just wish I'd discovered that about six colors earlier, sigh. Quote Old Dogs are the Best Dogs.

boopieface Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) Thirteen chocolate cupcakes, not frosted. After the vet stopped laughing, he said it should be fine. He did ask if they were in those foil cups, but I had run out of them so they were just in the paper ones.

buddibear Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Our Standard Poodle is in love with anything paper. Over a few hours she ate the better part of Southern Living Mag. I guess she thought the turkey dinner on the cover was tasty, She pooed confetti all over the neighborhood. You should see what a Dalmatian and a Springer can do with a 10# bag of birdseed.

mrsmcd7 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 It takes a lot of chocolate to hurt a greyhound bc they are a large breed dog. Also the type of chocolate makes a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeofNE Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 There is really not much chocolate in a Hershey's kiss. A greyhound size dog could probably eat the whole bag and not get sick. It's a specific ingredient in chocolate that makes dogs sick, and it's found in higher concentrations in stuff like baking chocolate. Things like "chocolate" cookies have virtually zero actual chocolate. Most of our "chocolate" covered items like ice cream bars are actually "chocolatey flavored" or such. I would encourage you to buy a book on canine first aid and read it. Lots of valuable information and you could put an end to needless worry if you had some facts on hand!

teri_d Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Oh the memories of Win eating a bag of chocolate chips --- he was fine and the vet got quite a laugh over the story behind it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukasmom Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 She has been having normal poops so we are good. I had a wired hair fox terrier who was part goat. Paper, tissues, balloons, makeup sponge, cotton foot let socks are some of the things she would eat. I always said if you are missing anything look in the dog run.
