Pet alert - Poisonous Mulch...Deadly to dogs
This is TRUE. I checked with Snopes myself and they say it is true.

Subject: Pet alert - Poisonous Mulch...Deadly to dogs
Please tell every dog or cat owner you know. Even if you don't have a
pet, please pass this to those who do.
Over the weekend the doting owner of two young lab mixes purchased
Cocoa Mulch from Target to use in their garden. They
loved the way it smelled and it was advertised to keep cats away from
their garden. Their dog Calypso decided that the mulch smelled good
enough to eat and devoured a large helping. She vomited a few times
which was typical when she eats something new but wasn't acting
lethargic in any w ay. The next day, Mom woke up and took Calypso out
for her morning walk . Half way through the walk, she had a seizure and
died instantly.
Although the mulch had NO warnings printed on the label, upon further
investigation on the company's website, this product is HIGHLY toxic to
dogs and cats.
Cocoa Mulch is manufactured by Hershey's, and they claim that 'It is
true that studies have shown that 50% of the dogs that eat Cocoa Mulch
can suffer physical harm to a variety of degrees (depending on each
individual dog). However, 98% of all dogs won't eat it.'
This Snopes site gives the following
information:
Cocoa Mulch, which is sold by Home Depot, Foreman's Garden Supply and
other Garden supply stores, contains a lethal ingredient called '
Theobromine'. It is lethal to dogs and cats. It smells like chocolate
and it really attracts dogs. They will ingest this stuff and die.
Several deaths already occurred in the last 2-3
weeks. Theobromine is in all chocolate, especially dark or baker's
chocolate which is toxic to dogs. Cocoa bean shells contain potentially
toxic quantities of theobromine, a xanthine compound similar in effects
to caffeine and theophylline. A dog that ingested a lethal qua ntity of
garden mulch made from cacao bean shells developed severe convulsions
and died 17 hours later. Analysis of the stomach contents and the
ingested cacao bean shells revealed the presence of lethal amounts of
theobromine.
