So my dog ate a ton of chocolate on Thursday, vomited like crazy the past few days but she seemed okay. Well, when we got home today, she was on the couch, just laying there. Practically lifeless. She wags her tail, moves her legs a bit, but she doesn't get up at all. We picked her up slightly and it was as if she doesn't have a single bone in her body. She won't eat or drink anything we put in front of her. Is she... dying..?
Bring her to the vet, she will die without food and water.

@BaldAndBold thank you so much

@BaldAndBold so... she died. Turns out she had Addison's Disease.
@SW-User I wasn't sent a notification, I'm sorry you lost her. 😞

TAKE YOUR DOG TO THE VET
My Human Body Systems teacher told me that if a dog eats something they're not supposed to, put a little bit of hydrogen peroxide down their throat. Theirs, and our digestive system cannot digest it, and they will throw up everything they've eaten in a matter of seconds.

@insidiousisblindinception we're at the vet now. It's not looking good.

note: dog's can't digest chocolate.... that's why now days there's a chocolate made for doggies.

gotta catch it before her pancreas goes into diabetic mode (or whatever it's relative to) and then her liver tries to shut down. which takes some time but she's going to be in a world of hurt until you can get her to the doctor.

if you can just get her to barf a little more and see if she can't take some fresh water.

if only!

time to take her to the vet and put her on IV and have the docs look over her inside and out then put her on meds. STAT!

uh. it sounds like she may be on her way out. chocolate is a neurotoxin for dogs.

Hard to diagnose online. She needs to see the vet A.S.A.P. for sure!

Possibly. I would get her to the ER right away.
