My 22lb pug mix ate a fun-sized milk chocolate. Will she be okay?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 22 lbs

My 22 lb pug mix just ate a small “fun sized” milk chocolate bar, wrapper and all, about 5 min ago. The bar is about the size of a domino. She seems to be acting ok so far but I don’t know if this small amount could be dangerous. Pls advise. Thank you!

Hi there. Such a small amount of chocolate (especially milk chocolate, which doesn't contain much cocoa) should not be enough to cause any significant issues - so no need to worry :) It's possible that Cupcake might have a mild upset stomach if she isn't used to eating "people food" like this, but otherwise she should be just fine.
