My dog ate a Butterfinger. Should I make him throw up using peroxide?

I certainly wouldn't worry about inducing vomiting after just one peanut butter cup. The induction of vomiting poses more risks than the peanut butter cup does! Inducing vomiting at home with hydrogen peroxide comes with the risk of aspiration and significant irritation to the esophagus and stomach. The wrapper will pass without a problem. There isn't enough chocolate in a peanut butter cup to cause any toxicity concerns. Worst case scenario, Jack may develop an upset stomach with a bit of vomiting and diarrhea. If he does, you can offer a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken and white rice for a few days before gradually transitioning back to his normal food. I hope that this helps and that everything goes well!

There is not much chocolate in these bars and the good thing is that it is milk chocolate (much less toxic than dark chocolate). Even if each of the bars was solid milk chocolate, he would not get enough for a toxic dose, so Apollo should be fine. If you happen to see him vomiting, then I would be concerned that he ate more than the reported amount, because this would be the first sign of toxicity. If he starts vomiting, then it's best to take him to the vet. Again, it's very unlikely with this small of amount. I hope that helps and all goes well with Apollo.

At this amount of chocolate and with Brewster's rate, the methylxanthine Level is 42.24mg/kg, which will only cause a mild reaction. You may see some vomiting, diarrhea, shaking, increased heart rate, or increased urination. I personally do not recommend making him vomit. The reason is that hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can and does cause severe esophagitis and gastritis, often worse than the initial problem, so it's always preferred to advise emergency care. In this case, Brewster should be fine because at most he will only experience a mild reaction and I can give you a home remedy if you see any vomiting or diarrhea. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet.

Oh no, that was naughty of Junior! Cocoa is toxic to dogs, but it depends on how much was in the donut as to whether or not it leads to toxic symptoms. In looking up the ingredients, I see that it contains less than 2% of cocoa, so the amount in this little donut is not likely to cause toxic symptoms. Junior should be ok, but keep an eye on him for now. To be safe, you can take him into a vet to safely induce vomiting. I don't recommend inducing vomiting at home. That's because hydrogen peroxide (which is used at home to induce vomiting) can and does cause severe esophagitis and gastritis, often worse than the initial problem, so it's always preferred to advise emergency care. Take him into a vet now to induce vomiting.

This will probably cause him nausea and vomiting, i wouldn't be worried about toxicity though because of the small chocolate amount ingested. you can't give him anything to help i'm afraid , just withhold food for 8-12 hours.

If he only ate the one wrapper, I wouldn't worry too much. The foil isn't stiff enough or large enough to block or cause damage as it moves through. If it has been less than an hour since your pet ate it, you can induce vomiting by giving an oral dose of hydrogen peroxide, about 1 cc per pound. One tablespoon is about 5 cc. A turkey baster will work if you don't have a syringe. Longer than an hour and it will have already moved into the intestines. Keep an eye on him for a few days to make sue he's okay and watch his feces for evidence that it has come out.

Well that was naughty of him. Since there is no toxicity concern and this is a rather small item that has a good chance of passing I would not recommend inducing vomiting. Every time we induce vomiting we do put the pet at risk of aspiration. I would continue to monitor him for signs of any trouble which includes vomiting up food and water, lack of appetite, and lethargy. However if the wrapping was small as I presume for a muffin, he will likely pass this with no issues. If he does have an upset stomach but not signs of blockage as mentioned above, then a bland diet of boiled plain chicken and rice or cottage cheese can be fed for a few days along with 1-2 tsp of canned pumpkin (not the pie filling) To help settle his stomach. Best wishes with your pet Rory and I hope things work out well for him moving forward. Take care!
