Can Dogs Eat Chocolate Chip Cookies?

Dogs cannot eat chocolate chip cookies. Because chocolate is made of cocoa beans or processed, and the derivatives of caffeine and theobromine and other methylxanthines contained in cocoa beans will bind to certain receptors on the cell surface, thereby preventing natural substances in the dog's body Combined with the receptor, it will cause serious harm to the dog's health.

If the dog eats only a small amount of chocolate by mistake, diarrhea, vomiting and muscle twitching will occur. If the consumption is slightly larger, it will cause epilepsy, and even the dog may die due to damage to the heart and nervous system. If it is found that the dog eats chocolate biscuits by mistake, it should be taken to the hospital as soon as possible. If the eating time is relatively short, it is recommended to induce vomiting. If it takes a long time, you may first check the liver and kidney indicators, or check whether there is any abnormality in the blood picture.

hint:

If your dog eats a small amount of chocolate, you can give him an electrolyte-balanced salt solution, which is usually available at drugstores. This solution can prevent the dog from dehydrating and promote the rapid excretion of toxic substances in the dog's body. Activated charcoal can be given orally after the dog eats the chocolate. Activated charcoal is non-toxic and can absorb toxins, reducing the absorption of toxins in the dog's stomach, thereby relieving the dog's pain. You can also mix a small spoonful of hydrogen peroxide in the water and let the dog swallow it, which can induce vomiting. If vomiting fails, feed hydrogen peroxide in the same way fifteen minutes later. If the dog has not vomited after half an hour, stop feeding and seek medical advice in time to avoid harm to the dog's body.
