You make a good point. When I was young, there use to be chocolate covered dog treats, not carob, but actually chocolate. Many of the things that we now know to be harmful to dogs came about from dogs eating large quantities of the substance. If dogs get a hold of certain food items they seem to have no sense of fullness and will eat vast quantities of something. So the list of harmful substances continues to grow; and with yorkies being so small, it's wise to cautious if it eats of even a small quantity of one of the forbidden items.
