I'm not saying go and feed your dog chocolate, it will still mess with it a bit but its not the straight out poison people make it out to be

About 6 weeks ago my 10kg Jack Russel stole a 500g family pack of chocolate out of the pantry and mowed the lot before we found him, hasn't slowed him down one bit! He is a fat bastard though, he has been known to eat a whole possum in one evening...
