“Can dogs eat Nutella” has been a trending question recently, and the answer is easy: no. Morkies (and all other dogs) can’t have chocolate, and the other ingredients in Nutella aren’t very good for dogs either.
No, sorry dogs, you can’t have Nutella 🙁
Nutella was developed in Alba, Italy in 1944 by Pietro Ferrero in the back of his pastry shop (pictured above). Popular for generations, Nutella is a delicious chocolate and hazelnut spread, a favourite for breakfast in many families.
What’s in Nutella?
- sugar
- modified palm oil
- hazelnuts

Here’s an excellent resource – put in your Morkie’s weight and amount of chocolate you think he’s eaten. The results will show you what action to take.
What about the hazelnuts – can dogs have nuts?
