Mars, which is based in McLean, Va., and has $35 billion in annual sales, is the privately held maker of such candy brands as M&Ms, Snickers...

Dont know if too many dogs will eat chocolate flavored Pedigree.They might do so once. Given what chocolate might do to their livers it would probably be the only time.

Dogs would get just one chance to eat chocolate covered anything.

I’m glad they beat out Panda Express in the bidding war.

Chocolate is poison for most dogs.

Pedigree, Whiskas and Sheba are not much better.

Mar’s has had a pet food division for a long time. It’s only a few miles from here.
I hear it’s an interesting place to work. You can bring your pets with you as long as they are well behaved. And candy bars are free.
I guess the pet food division has decided to branch into veterinary services.

Over 40% of Mars is pet related.

A few Christmases ago, our Golden helped himself to a whole bag of Hershey Kisses, which he devoured foil wrappers and all. We called animal poison control, who instructed us on how to induce him to vomit. He was fine although he pooped red and green foil for a few days.
