Cocoa Mulch can KILL dogs Print Email PLEASE PASS IT ON ~ EVEN IF YOU DON ' T HAVE A PET, YOU SURELY KNOW SOMEONE WHO DOES. Cocoa Mulch from Target to use in their garden. They loved the way it smelled and it was advertised to keep cats away from their garden. Their dog Calypso decided that the mulch smelled good enough to eat and devoured a large helping. She vomited a few times which was typical when she eats something new but wasn ' t acting lethargic in any way. The next day, Mom woke up and took Calypso out for her morning walk . Half way through the walk, she had a seizure and died instantly. NO warnings printed on the label, upon further investigation on the company ' s website, this product is HIGHLY toxic to dogs and cats . http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/cocoamulch.asp , which is sold by Home Depot, Foreman ' s Garden Supply and other Garden supply stores , contains a lethal ingredient called ' Theobromine ' . It is lethal to dogs and cats. It smells like chocolate and it really attracts dogs. They will ingest this stuff and die. Several deaths already occurred in the last 2-3 weeks. Theobromine is in all chocolate, especially dark or baker ' s chocolate which is toxic to dogs. Cocoa bean shells contain potentially toxic quantities of theobromine, a xanthine compound similar in effects to caffeine and theophylline. A dog that ingested a lethal quantity of garden mulch made from cacao bean shells developed severe convulsions and died 17 hours later. Analysis of the stomach contents and the ingested cacao bean shells revealed the presence of lethal amounts of theobromine.

OOPS A DAZY WISH LIST Print Email We are in very bad need of building supplies to make shelters for all of our animals. Our barn was very old and in bad shape when we bought the farm 4 years ago and the wind and weather has it almost falling down. If you know anyone who could donate lumber, other building supplies, or cash, we would be forever in your debt. Our dogs and cats are in need of safe places for them to get out of the cold.
