This candy is not toxic for your pup. It's a lot of sugar, so he may be a bit hyperactive and may have some intestinal upset (vomiting or diarrhea). If he has vomiting or diarrhea that lasts for more than 24 hours, is very lethargic, or otherwise seems off, I would recommend a vet visit, but there's nothing you need to do right now. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach and please let me know if this was helpful information.
