A dog has made a miraculous recovery after eating seven Easter eggs. Owner Katrina Gordon had arranged a display of chocolate for her 3-year-old son, Leo. It consisted of seven Easter eggs and other bars nestled in the back of a toy tractor and covered with plastic. But while the pair were out, Golden Labrador Holly ripped through the plastic and devoured nearly every piece of chocolate. Thankfully, the family was able to take Holly to an emergency clinic in their hometown of Belfast, where veterinarians administered medication to encourage vomiting. The family is eager to raise awareness of the dangers of leaving chocolate around dogs at Easter. Katrina said, “We’d got him a toy tractor with a trailer, and I’d filled it with seven Easter eggs and chocolate. “I put clear wrapping over the top to cover it and then had to pop out with Leo.
