Hello! Good news! It does not look like this has enough chocolate to be toxic to a dog of Chewy's size. I worry much more about dark chocolate, which has a much higher concentration of the toxic compound Theobromine. This product only contains a very small amount of milk chocolate. Chewy may experience minor vomiting or diarrhea from eating a new rich food, but should not experience any chocolate toxicity problems. Have a good day!
