can dogs eat cheese? is it bad for them?

Cheese is fine (in moderation). Grapes, onions, garlic, and chocolate are not. There may be others. Your vet should be able to confirm good and bad foods. Don’t use AI for this kind of advice.

Isn't the chocolate thing often exaggerated though? Like if a 50lb dog eats a full snickers bar, most vets would tell you not to worry about it.

Like don't feed them chocolate, or leave a bucket of candy out where they can have it, but if you walk to the bathroom on movie night and he snatched half your chocolate bar off the coffee table; he's not going to die.

Grapes on the other hand... Apparently they're fucking dangerous

I imagine, the problem comes in from there being wildly different sizes of both, dogs and chocolate.

I once heard a story, where a small dog had eaten chocolate, so the owner called the vet. And at first, the vet told them that it's probably fine, but wanted to know how much chocolate the dog ate.

And when they then told the vet, that the dog had eaten a full-size chocolate bar, suddenly it was treated like an emergency. As in, they had to bring the dog to the vet immediately, got treated before everyone else still waiting, and the dog was given a drug to make it puke out all the chocolate.
