My puppy ate a Hershey's Kiss (chocolate & wrapper). What should I do?

Fortunately that is not enough chocolate to be of a toxic dose in Goofy. It may upset his stomach though and cause vomiting or diarrhea over the next 24 hours though. You can monitor for any changes or symptoms then seek a vet if needed.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Louie! One Hershey kiss weighs about 4.46 grams so 20 is about 89.2 grams of milk chocolate. For Louie that is a toxic dose where vomiting and diarrhea will occur. Since he is vomiting he should be seen by your Vet for an exam, anti-nausea medications and fluids today. If he is having diarrhea they can provide medications to help with that. Once the vomiting stops he should be fed a bland diet for 3-7 days. You can purchase a diet from your Vet or cook for him by boiling chicken or hamburger and combining it with rice. Feed 1 cup per 20 lbs per day. I wish Louie the best!

It does matter that it is white chocolate - fortunately white chocolate is not toxic! It could cause some mild stomach upset so if Xina vomits or develops diarrhea I’d recommend seeing your vet. Otherwise no treatment is required.

Chocolate toxicity can cause a significant amount of GI upset (vomiting and diarrhea), but does not tend to cause long term problems unless the dose was high enough to cause seizures. The foil wrappers should not cause a problem unless there is enough foil to cause an obstruction in the GI tract. If the vomiting and diarrhea is still continuing three days later, it would be worth having your vet examine Louie and give him some medication to help him feel better. Good luck! I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

It will probably not cause any problems as it wasn't enough chocolate to be toxic. Watch for vomiting, diarrhea, or tremors and if noted, take him to a vet right away. Good luck and kisses to Hercules!

Nine chocolate kisses equals about 1.45 ounces, so 12 kisses would be 1.93 ounces. Based on the chocolate toxicity calculator, at Josie's weight, you will see minimal to no reaction from eating this amount of chocolate. You may see some GI upset, such as vomiting and diarrhea, and if you do, I recommend withholding food and feeding a bland diet. 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 her normal diet.

No need to worry! Licking the wrapper won't be enough chocolate to cause Hazel any problems. Even eating a bit of the wrapper is not a worry. This should dissolve in her stomach acid and pass without issue. You don't need to do anything. I hope this helps!
