Chocolate Toxic to Dogs............
While we find chocolate has lot of health benefit for humans, it is toxic & sometime even fatal for animals especially dogs.
The biggest problem is the inexperienced dog owners tend to share chocolate as they share other foods. Once they had it, as most dogs have sweet tooth, they will find it out if they smell it around the house.Symptoms of Poisoning by chocolate includes vomiting, restlessness, hyperactivity and muscle twitching. Frequent urination is also common.
Theobromine in chocolate acts as a poison in dogs as it cannot break down and excrete theobromine as efficiently as humans. This affects their Central Nervous System and heart thereby throwing their system into panic which manifests in the form of epileptic seizures.
Please be aware that............
Dark Chocolate is 10 times more toxic to animals than Milk Chocolate.
It is advisable when a dog ingest chocolate immediately call on your veterinarian.

Organic Dark Chocolate
As we are becoming more aware of social and physical consequences of the food we take every day, the demand for Organic food is on the rise, chocolate being no exception.
Organic products are manufactured without the use of synthetic fertilisers, pesticides, genetically modified organisms or radiations. As cocoa trees are grown without the use of the above, cultivator needs to be more careful from bugs, birds and other infestation. A full grown Organic tree become more resistant to diseases thus resulting in better harvest.
The extra cost for the extra effort by the cultivator is well worth an investment for your health. Organic Dark Chocolate is made up of Organic Certified ingredients, namely, Cocoa beans, Sugar and Cocoa butter.
Many people believe that Organic Chocolate are having more richer taste than Non-Organic one. Taste yourself to feel the difference...........
