Hi there. There should not be enough actual cocoa in half of a chocolate muffin to cause any significant toxicity issues in a dog this size, so it's unlikely that you'll see any problems. Zion may have some minor stomach upset if he isn't used to eating human food like this, but otherwise should be just fine.
