Today my dog had its first seizure ad it was HORRRIBLE. I have never felt such pain. To see my dog lying there shaking and all stiff really like had an impact on me. Anyways, I was just wondering if somebody can tell me if chocolate can cause a seizure on dogs, oh and fish! I've heard so many times that chocolate is bad for your dog but nobody ever said what it could do to it. Yesterday I gave it some and I am so scared that its seizures are my fault! So...I'd like to know if you think you can provide me with some answers. Please :-(.

How does tihs have to do with personal life?
Call your local vet, use a phone book?
And don't ever fucking feed your pets chocolate. Read a pet owner's manual. That's just irresponsible.

YOU SHOULD NOT DO IT.

Are you fucking retarded? CHOCOLATE CAN KILL A DOG. Good job, idiot.
Oh, and don't feed your dog onions or anything in the garlic family, that too, can kill dogs.
TAKE YOUR DOG TO THE VET NOW AND GET OFF AP.
The first symptoms of chocolate poisoning in dogs (http://www.squidoo.com/dogschocolate) include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and increased urination. These symptoms will occur 2 to 4 hours after intake, and chocolate in the vomit may be obvious. Excessive urination may result from the diuretic (water clearing) action of the chocolate.
Advanced signs of chocolate poisoning include cardiac arrhythmias, hallucinations, stiffness, epileptic seizures, muscle twitching, excitement, extreme responses to noise, light, and touch.
Internal bleeding, heart failure, weakness, coma, and eventually death can occur 12 to 36 hours after intake.
Chocolate poisoning can be confused with many other types of poisoning or conditions. Life threatening chemical poisoning can cause very similar effects.
Chemicals such as strychnine, amphetamines, pesticides, and some rodenticides can have mirror effects.
A typical 40 pound dog will normally experience intestinal distress after eating less than 8 ounces of dark chocolate, but won't necessarily experience bradycardia (a slow heartbeat rate) or tachyarrhythmia (an increase in heart rate) unless it eats at least a pound of milk chocolate.
According to the Merck Veterinary Manual, approximately 0.023 ounces of baker's chocolate per pound of a dog's body weight is sufficient to cause symptoms of toxicity. For example, a typical 1 ounce baker's chocolate piece would be enough to bring out symptoms in a 40 pound dog.
