My dog ate chocolate, won't eat/drink, not vomiting. What should I do?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

My dog ate maybe a little over half a box of sees chocates filled with nogut and fillings (so most chocolate is on the outside). We tried hydrogen peroxide and she only vomitted a little white foam up. We bought activated charcoal to try that but she won't eat anything now. She is currently snuggled up to me on the couch. She is not vomitting and will not take any food or water. What should I be doing. How worried should I be?

That's a fair amount of chocolate, and if any of those chocolates were dark chocolate, that is very concerning. Dark chocolate is the most toxic type, and takes the least amount to cause toxicity. I would take your dog into a vet immediately, as they can give her a shot to induce vomiting. They can also give her activated charcoal. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
