I got curious to know whether other sugar alcohols besides xylitol are toxic to dogs and found this:
<http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6WPT-45N451N-1D&_user=10&_rdoc=1&_fmt=&_orig=search&_sort=d&view=c&_acct=C000050221&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=477d26473194c061b2fc444e6fbe9435>

Perhaps the reason no toxicity was found in the above studies is because
erythritol is excreted through the urinary tract. Or perhaps it is becasue the dogs weren't suddednly fed a large amoutn all at once. I have read that chocolate toxicity in dogs is very definitely dosage related, but also breed related.

This aritcle might be of interest but I only read the first portion.
