Oreo O cereal does not really have that much chocolate (cocoa) so your pug would likely have to eat a whole box full in order to get toxic effects. However, if you suspect she ate a lot of the cereal, you can take her to a Pet ER right away, where they can make her regurgitate the cereal with a medication called apomorphine. If you do not want to take her to the Pet ER watch for signs of chocolate intoxication: Hyperactivity Restlessness Vomiting Elevated heart rate Hypertension (elevated blood pressure) Abnormal heart rhythms Tremors Hyperthermia (elevated body temperature) Seizures Collapse If any of these signs appear within the next three hours then she needs to be seen by a vet right away.
