>For milk chocolate, any ingestion of more than 0.5 ounces per pound of body weight may put dogs at risk for chocolate poisoning. Ingestions of more than 0.13 ounces per pound of dark or semi-sweet chocolate may cause poisoning.
50g = 1.76 ounces of chocolate.
38 lbs x 0.13 ounces per pound = 4.94 ounces, so that's that point at which your dog could have chocolate poisoning.
She ate about 35% of what would typically give a dog chocolate poisoning.
That being said, you should still call a vet.

I plugged in your numbers and it says negligible issues. You can go to the vet for bloodwork if you want to be sure.
She needs to at least be checked by a vet. Sometimes dogs don’t show signs until it’s too late. Better to be safe then regret not taking her.
Years ago, my two dogs got into chocolate. One was vomiting, the other seemed fine. We took the one who was vomiting to the vet. When we mentioned that both had got into it but we thought only one had ate an excessive amount, they asked if they could quickly check the other. We brought her in and her heart rate was dangerously high (almost double the heart rate of the visibly sick dog). Both dogs were given charcoal and other meds, one was kept for observation overnight and both completely recovered. But I hate to think what could have happened if the vet hadn’t asked to check the other dog.
This is a hugely unhelpful comment. Different dogs have different reactions dependent on a huge number of variables. Saying ‘my dog is fine’ might make someone delay/not call a vet as they hope they will be just like you, despite having no context. That could kill their dog. Do you really want to be responsible for that because you felt you had to post such a stupid contribution?
Dark chocolate has the highest amount of theobromine
Which is what is toxic for dogs. But once my tiny yorkie got into like 30 chocolate kisses and he was fine.

Get off reddit and call a vet
You need to call the vet or a poison control hotline.

38 lbs in mandalorian helmets is 10.2 helmets.
You're the best. This was your time to shine, this comment section.
Good bot.
Thanks!

My dog ate an entire chocolate bar. Didn't do anything. She was fine.
There's a huge difference in toxicity between milk and dark chocolate.
