NO! Dont do it! Chocolates are evil!

One of mine is anyways. We call her “Trouble” She loves to counter surf when your back is turned. This weekend she dug two metal tins out of a box, chewed them open and ate 31 dark chocolate candies. Third or forth time she has been been to the vet for eating the wrong thing. Once ate 2-3 pounds of bird seed... Pooped it for a week.

I love Labs, they are the best dogs in the world. She is my big “Goofy Girl”.

Shes the one that stands in the middle of all the trash on the floor with the look “What did you expect? I am a dog!”

She’s a rescue, and we always say “Well, we know why she was given up before!” :)

Yeah - my Labs were all through friends or ‘Pound Found.’ They’ve made me keep my house in order, that’s for sure!

Now that I think about it, about 25 years ago the first one ate an entire floor-standing houseplant while we were gone for the evening. I mean it was GONE - just some dirt and the pot remained.

Never did find ANY pieces of that plant, she never pooped it out (we checked - Ewww!) and she lived to be 15, so I guess it was Labrador Aliens, LOL!

We had 2 Cavaliers who ate garden mulch as puppies, thankfully not the cocoa hull kind. It was still an expensive lesson in what NOT to eat for those two and for our checkbook. LOL now, crying then.
