Uhh... stick your finger down his throat?!

Nothing at all, it's a wild exageration to say it kills dogs. Chocolate is mildly poisenous to dogs & can upset their stomachs, make them sick that kinda thing. I doubt the amount of actual chocolate on coco-pops would even register.

nothing will happen to him,he might just occasionally snap,crackle or pop. :0)there isnt enough chocklate in to do him any harm unless you feed it to him 3times a day

Your dog should be fine... chocolate does poison dogs in significant amounts but the amount of chocolate in coco puffs is minimal. However, if your dog ever eats any choclate, vets advise that you must call them, because it depends on the size of your dog as well as other factors. If the vet feels that it is dangerous, he will want you to bring the dog in very quickly. You should also look out for these signs of poisoning: * Excitement / nervousness / trembling * Vomiting / diarrhea * Excessive thirst / sometimes excessive urination. * Muscle spasms * Seizures * Coma (rare) * Death (rare) -- likely due to heart rhythm abnormalities. My dog ate the entire supply of Christmas chocolate in one night, and was absolutely fine! Pounds upon pounds of the stuff!

Your dog should be okay co-co puffs wouldn't have alot of dark chocolate in it. My dog ate 3 avent calendar that that is worse then co-co puffs. And my dog was fine.

I would not worry to much about it. But I think I would try and keep all the rest of the foods/etc: you have, out of his/her reach from now on.

didnt kill any of our dogs when i was young -wouldnt worry about it

Dunno, but the dog will have tasty smelling farts. Beyond that, just keep the CoCo Puffs where Fido can't reach them.
