Risks

health-risks
  • The chocolate in the chocolate milkshake contains theobromine and caffeine, which are toxic to dogs. Although it would take large amounts of chocolate milkshake to induce poisoning in dogs, it is best to avoid taking the risk.
  • Chocolate milkshake contains dairy, which is difficult for dogs to digest since most dogs are mostly lactose intolerant.
  • Chocolate milkshake also has high sugar content, which can lead to digestive upset, obesity, and diabetes when consumed regularly in large doses.
