Good news, bad news, and some potentially life-saving info in this episode of The Buzby Dog Podcast. Dr. Buzby shares the story of her sister’s dog, Banjo, and an empty bag of chocolate chips. After explaining Banjo’s adventure (which included an overnight stay at the emergency hospital), Dr. Buzby details what to do if _your_ dog consumes chocolate.

She also talks about the root issue: why chocolate is potentially deadly for dogs but merely dangerous to human waistlines.

The ASPCA Poison Control: (888) 426-4435
