We came home because we forgot something on a short trip to the store and it looks like Baby (our dog) got into the bag of left over food I had taken with me on my hike to Golden ears mountain. My first reaction was "Bad baby!!!" and then I realized that there was a small 70% pure chocolate bar that was, and I do mean 'was' as it did not exist any more, in the bag of goodies. My next reaction was fear because dogs are allergic to chocolate and can die. We frantically searched the internet to find out the toxicity levels and symptoms to watch for. The bar was about 1.5oz and it apparently takes 6oz to be toxic for her weight, so it seems she will be o.k. The weird thing was that she ate all the wrappers!? There were powerbars, granola bars, power gel!, chocolate, fruit bars, and a protein bar. Not a stitch of evidence! Poor thing digesting the wrappers:(
When we gave her shit she peed herself; good thing for hardwood floors for an easy clean-up. She is such a Baby.
We left to go to the store and 1/2 way down the street the light came on. (In our head!)
What do dogs do when they have a nice treat like a bone? They bury it or take it to a quite location for consumption without interference. Where does Baby like to go? The Spare bedroom! Turn the car around again! I could just see her watching us leave and laughing as she headed back to her stash of 1/2 eaten treats. Sure enough....
Let me present the evidence. Take a note of the perfectly opened wrapper down the seam on the protein bar in the bottom photo at the top.
