From NRN Life: Chocolate Is Poisonous to Dogs! Yesterday some innocent kids were sharing their chocolate biscuits with a street dog. Please teach your kids that while their compassion is admirable and should continue, chocolate is poison for dogs. This pic is not edited. It happened at a vet's clinic where the dog had eaten chocolate lying around after a christmas party. He did not survive! Chocolate is processed from the bitter seeds of the cacao tree containing a family of compounds known as methylxanthines. This class of substances includes caffeine and the related chemical theobromine. Both molecules bind to receptors on the surfaces of cells and block the natural compounds that normally attach there. Low doses of methylxanthines can lead to vomiting or diarrhea in dogs. If a large quantity of theobromine or caffeine is ingested, some dogs will experience muscle tremors or even seizures. These chemical constituents of chocolate can cause a dog's heart to race up to twice its normal rate.
Keep share and keep your canine buddies far far away from chocolates 🍫🍪🍩🎂☕🍫
Every Life is Precious 💝
