Lol. Macadamia nuts are so expensive that I won't share them with my dog. I tell her she can't have any because they are covered in chocolate, but really it's because I don't want to share. I guess it's a good thing that they are pricey so people are less likely to share with Fido.

@mrschristinaleigh7 What about milk chocolate? That's what I give them sometimes, not all the time, very rarely, only if they beg.

@YoungGuns019 Dark Chocolate is toxic

I've been feeding my dogs chocolate for ten years, and they're all as healthy as a horse.

@ghiodee20 =D i got a shih tzu to!!! yay ok lol wtever

i always thought it was mainly the caffeine in chocolate that bad for dogs. generally dark chocolate has higher concentration of caffeine because its less diluted. also a reason why you dont want to give kids lots of chocolate you might as well give them sweeten coffee. in general anything with caffeine in it is bad for dogs. so really the best thing to say is anything with caffeine in it is "toxic" for dogs.
