A 65 lb. lab would have to eat an ENORMOUS quantity of milk chocolate to be in real danger. I think it would need to be well over 10 lbs. of actual chocolate, which simply isn't likely. I'm not sure my dog would eat 10 lbs. of hot dogs given the opportunity. A big-ish dog isn't likely in danger from eating even a whole Halloween-sized bag of kit-kat, but I'll bet you saw a few interesting bowel movements.
Yep! You are 'spot on' . That is the size of my dog and it was interesting afterwards but he really didn't seem very bothered.
lol, my friend's boxers found a bag of the green stuff when they were puppies (about 20 lbs) and ate the entire bag.
one kept puking up her guts the other was passed out on the pillow with his four legs up in the air.
Their dad is the one who stole the box of chocolates, so my friend is always having adventures with those things
20lbs of the green stuff?
Or 20 lbs of dog?
I have to say I find where this is going very funny - but sorry, I must 'spread it around' first!
And I'd have to add that at 3 months, our 'puppy' was about 40lbs. The vet then estimated she'd get to be 80-90lbs, but she's seemed to stop at 60lbs. Other than a small Shetland sheepdog my parents got from the pound when I was very young, all our dogs were big dogs (GSDs, collies, labs), so maybe that's why I'd never heard many of these 'warnings'.
The list is quite long - and a lot of it was surprising.

No walnuts???????? They're one of Present Dog's favorite snacks! Then again, she only gets a few at a time. But I guess we'll just stick with the pistachios, then.
As for peeled grapes...yes, First Dog used to get peeled grapes, too. She loved them--and she wouldn't eat one with the peel on it, either. She also enjoyed apples, oranges, mandarines, and pretty much everything she saw disappearing into my mouth except tomatoes and bananas. Present Dog hates fruit...
I didn't know about a lot of this, either. I knew that onions were poisonous to cats, or so I was told, but didn't know it was for dogs, too. I think all our dogs over the years have had everything mentioned so far in small amounts mostly by accident (except for the green stuff, as far as I know, never know with college kids in the house, though ) but thankfully I've seen no ill effects.
I feed my 1 year old dog frozen grapes and carrots all the time he loves them and there is no affect, no vomit, no diarrhea, or any thing. He is perfectally healthy the vet says so I think the whole grapes thig is only certain dogs.
