Brownies can indeed be a concern for dogs because they often contain chocolate, which is toxic to them. The level of toxicity varies depending on the type and amount of chocolate ingested, with dark chocolate and baking chocolate being more hazardous than milk chocolate.

Since your dog has eaten brownies, it's crucial to monitor him closely for any signs of chocolate toxicity. Symptoms to watch for include vomiting, diarrhea, an increased heart rate, restlessness, and in severe cases, seizures.

At this point, please keep a close eye on your dog for any unusual behavior or symptoms. Ensure he has access to plenty of fresh water to help keep him hydrated. If you observe any worrying symptoms or are uncertain about the amount of chocolate he consumed, it is advisable to contact a veterinarian for guidance. They may suggest inducing vomiting or other treatments based on the situation.

If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to reach out. Thank you.
