Valentine’s Day is sweet—but chocolate and pets don’t mix ❤️🍫🐾
With more candy in the house this time of year, it’s important to keep chocolate safely out of reach. Chocolate contains theobromine, which pets can’t process the way humans do. Even small amounts can cause stomach upset, restlessness, and a rapid heart rate—while darker chocolates are especially dangerous.
If you think your pet may have gotten into chocolate, don’t wait. Knowing what to do next can make all the difference.
