Our 3,5 month old lab puppy managed to steal a whole chocolate bar (180g milk chocolate) while we moved christmas packages around and ate it whole.

We force-fed a handful of salt to him immediately after noticing what had happened and he vomited almost all of it out. I called a vet and got instructions to give medicinal coal and monitor closely if any symptoms appear.

It’s been several hours now and he’s pretty much back to normal, a bit beaten up due to vomiting and upset stomach, but at least so far seems like nothing permanent happened. He’s got a vet scheduled anyways in few days for other stuff so he’ll get checked up at the same time.

    Yup. I ended up in the ER drinking some activated charcoal slurry that time I overdosed on acetaminophen (I’m fine, except for really liking trains now). It’s gross.

      Shit, I’m so sorry. What’s your favourite train? I really love Montreal’s MR-73 and its iconic noises, the rubber wheels were a really cool idea.
