Food Discussion & Information / chocolate chip cookies are deadly!!!
« on: December 25, 2005, 05:37:06 pm »
I nearly killed my newfoundland,bear,accidentally by feeding him chocolate chip cookies about 4 months ago,chocolate contains a chemical called theobromide which can cause them to go into shock and die within minutes!!!the closer you get to bakeing chocolate,the higher the concentration of theobromide,and chocolate chip cookies are baked!!!,I am posting this so hopefully nobody else has to go through the nightmare I went through!!!

thanks brandon, wonderful to talk to fellow newfie owners,because I believe you have to be in the company of newfies before you begin to understand what a rare soul you have found!

thanks guys for the imput,I was told by a very!! knowledgeable breeder, that she has known them to sometimes die from an intestinal blockage due to eating to large a rock,I'm sure we've all gone through this worry, but I know something that will help for anybody that finds themselves in this situation, get a gallon of high quality!!! soybean oil from a feedmill etc.and a gallon of blackstrap molassis from whereever,pour as much as you can into the palm of your hand,they won't eat it any other way,keep pursueing them and asking them in a gentle! voice, very important! with newfies as I'm sure you all know!, to eat it,give them 6 handfulls of soybean oil and 3 of blackstrap molassis,I'll guarentee you they will pass anything in their stomachs within 24 hrs tops,we once save the life of a 19 yr.old, 1800 pound stud this way,it was recommended to us by a very smart vet
