Thank you for submitting your question regarding Lala. Nutella is high in fat and calories. This can cause gastrointestinal upset in a dog. There is a small amount of chocolate as well. This has the potential to cause toxicity, but the amount was likely too small given her size. However, I do recommend that she sees a veterinarian, especially if the vomiting continues. Pancreatitis is another complication and this can be serious. Inflammation of the pancreas is commonly triggered by high fat foods. I hope this information helps!
