Make her throw up. Give her hydrogen peroxide.

When LuLu got one of Tyson's pills I had to try and make her throw up. I gave her about a tablespoon of peroxide, and the e-vet told me that if she didn't throw up in 10 minutes to give her another tablespoon.

I would try calling a vet in the area or the e-vet and asking them what the dosage would be for sure.

Good luck, I hope you can get her to throw up.

Hydrogen peroxide turns to water in their system so don't worry if you have to try a few times. Norton ate 3 pounds of milk chocolate hair pull and we took him to the vet. They gave him an IV that made him throw up very quickly. Total vet bill- 28.00. Call you vet and let them know what is going on. Please your case in regards to funds. Good luck!

Well i gave her the hydrogen peroxide about 1 1/2 tbs and she threw up within 5 mins. Now how will I know if it all came out? Should I get some pedialyte for her? I put her in the crate just so its easier for her to be calm and I can watch her better. Sorry but Im 8.5 months pregnant I cant really get up every time she goes in another room. I called 2 vets here they told me to bring her in and to be seen it would be 30 plus what ever she needs done. Shes not acting strange or anything, Im just freaking.

Here is an interactive chart that tells you how much chocolate (based on type) it takes to make a dog sick

I'm glad you gave Hydrogen Peroxide. You can do it again to make sure it is all out of the system.

I have a baby snot syringe and I use that to administer the HP. I fill up the ball and give one long squirt. Wait 5 minutes and, if nothing happens, give another big squirt.

What happens is that the HP expands in their stomach and causes them to throw up. I won't harm your dog in the amounts we're talking about here. (I don't even think large amounts will hurt - but I don't recommend it.)

You want to get 90% of the chocolate out of there as quickly as possible. Once it starts digesting is when the liver toxicity starts - and that is a MORE expensive vet bill.

If your pug starts shaking in any way (usually about 8-10 hours from ingestion) then he needs to go to the vet and be put on an IV to flush the system.
