Extreme Measures

Normally, I would NEVER recommend this BUT ...

Let's just say that you have this stash of chocolate that you keep in a bag on a shelf in your office. We'll say it's a mix of Hershey Kisses, Peanut Butter Cups, and Hershey Miniatures. And you have two small dogs ... like a toy poodle and a chiuaua ... and they find this stash and eat ... oh ... about a pound of chocolate between the two of them.

And let's that they then get sick and barf all over your light colored carpet.

The ONLY way to get chocolate dog barf out of said carpet is with all purpose cleaner with bleach and a carpet cleaner. You have to spray with cleaner, watch the chocolate bleach out (it's really quick), then pour a glass of water over it to dilute it. Then you suck it up with the carpet cleaner, go over it a few more times with carpet cleaning solution.

And find a better spot for what's left of your stash...

Peace Out,

Wow...you're lucky they threw it up. Chocolate can kill a dog...if they don't throw up soon, you have to give them peroxide to induce vomiting.

good save. My oldest daughter cleaned lipstick off her bedroom carpet with pure bleach.

yeah.

Yikes.

That's one of the many reasons I prefer dark carpet.

You're lucky the dogs threw that stuff up. That much chocolate in a dog that small is deadly, as Jeff mentioned.

You know, I'll bet the dogs worked together to get at that chocolate...

Of all the dogs I have been around in lo these many years, I've never seen any of them, once they find a stash such as yours, having 'left' much of anything, other than wrappers, behind. And I think those got scarfed, too.

Batman, I know this is SOOOO politically INcorrect, but a dead dog is easier to clean up than chocolate out of carpet. Don't tell PETA!

Jen, lipstick is evil to get out!!!

Brooke, at first I thought you said that was why you prefered dark CHOCOLATE. I prefer no carpet at all. Tile rocks!

Fredd, I put what was left on the top of my shelf next to the desk. My dogs jumped up on the chair, on the desk, and managed to pull the bag down! It is now in a tupperware container. I had a piece of chocolate this morning and those dogs were just STARING at me. I think they're addicted now.
