My late Golden, Terra, did this when she was being boarded over Thanksgiving one year. The kennel was over full, and the owner liked my dog and allowed her to have the run of the office during the day. She went into the owner’s house over night. Terra discovered the owner’s stash of Hershey’s kisses under the desk and ate the whole bag. No harm, thank goodness.

I’m told that it didn’t bother her because it was milk chocolate, and she was an 85 lb dog. Had it been dark chocolate and she was a 45 lb dog, the results might have been different.

This article makes me sad, however, because I’d developed the habit of removing (and eating myself) all raisins (and dried cranberries for good measure) from anything I’m eating and giving the remainder to our precious Golden, Max. He died last month from Pancreatic cancer, and we miss him so much.

Sorry to hear that you lost your precious Max. Only one month ago! It must still hurt so bad. You have my deepest sympathy, and may God grant you solace and peace.
