My dog has only eaten 2 RUNTS, but I wanted to make sure it's not going to make her sick, before feeding her more.

Any people candy can upset her blood sugar levels, as dogs metabolize sugars differently than humans..the safest amount is *none*....You don't want to risk hypoglycemia or diabetes....

why did you feed your dog candy in the first place when candy is only ment for humans. you can make your dog sick and you'll end up taking your dog to the vets if you continue to give your dog anymore.

It's not a good idea to give your dog candy or any high sugar foods. Stick with dog food & dog treats. They are made FOR DOGS....
Stay away from rawhide chews & the like. Stay away from table scraps, pork & chicken bones.
For the health of your dog.....Besides, when you start feeding them stuff from the table, etc. that leads to begging & it will also lead to them not wanting to eat their own food that is MADE FOR THEM....
Dogs require proper nutrition to stay healthy, just stick with "DOG" stuff....They are not people & they should not eat many things people eat....

It will really only hurt her if she chokes on them. Just like humans though, it will rot her teeth if you don't brush them. (Yes, you should brush your dog's teeth.) And always, if you are going to feed your dog any kind of "people" food, do it in moderation like for a treat instead of dog treats. It really isn't good for them often.

Don't feed her anymore of that crap! Why would you feed a dog a sugar junkfood candy, with no nutritional value, that is hard as rock and could be a choke hazard??

STOP FEEDING YOUR DOG CANDY.
Is it good for you? NO, so it isn't good for your dog. That amount of sugar can cause your dog to essentially go ona sugar "high" and be spastic for a while, after which the dog will crash, and be lethargic. It is NOT healthy and there is NO NEED TO DO THIS TO YOUR PET.

Dogs shouldn't eat human food! Give her some dog treats instead!

Sugary stuff is bad for a dog's teeth. And that can lead to a lot of complications.
Do you want to risk that?

Candy can be fatal to dogs !! Sugarless, especially if it contains xylitol! Also grapes can cause death. Watch your dog for any vomiting symptoms, or if she acts unusual , I would take her to the vet immediately with the box and its ingredients... see if it shows either of those ingredients, if "yes" , call the emergency room and discuss it with them!

dogs are not people, they really shouldn't be eating people food, especially candy and snack foods. besides, the candy could break her teeth if she is a small breed dog
