Should you take your yorkie to the vet for eating dark chocolate?

Yes, you should take your Yorkie to the vet if it has consumed dark chocolate.

Dark chocolate contains a high amount of theobromine, which is toxic to dogs. Theobromine can cause vomiting, diarrhea, thirst, panting, seizures, and even death. The amount of theobromine in chocolate varies depending on the type of chocolate and the cocoa content. Dark chocolate has a higher concentration of theobromine than milk chocolate or white chocolate.

The size of your Yorkie will also affect how toxic dark chocolate is. Smaller dogs are more likely to experience severe symptoms from theobromine poisoning. If your Yorkie has eaten dark chocolate, it is important to take them to the vet as soon as possible. The vet will be able to determine if your dog has consumed a toxic amount of theobromine and will provide treatment if necessary.

Here are some symptoms of theobromine poisoning:

* Vomiting

* Diarrhea

* Thirst

* Panting

* Seizures

* Death

If your Yorkie has eaten dark chocolate, it is important to monitor them closely for any of these symptoms. If you see any of these symptoms, take your dog to the vet immediately.
