I don't think so. Per wikipedia, white chocolate is made mostly from cocoa butter, not cocoa solids. Theobromine, the compound that dogs can't handle, is found in cocoa solids. More cocoa solids = more brown color.
So order of toxicity is dark chocolate > milk chocolate > white chocolate.
I also think it has to be a fair amount of chocolate. Those dark baking bars are bad, I guess, but most chocolate doesn't seem strong enough, luckily, to hurt them. My dogs ate 1/2 pound of gourmet chocolate truffles once with no ill effects. It was spread between the two Shibas (when they still got along) and the GSD, but knowing how they are, I suspect Toby got most of it, and Kai very little.
And I was super pissed at the FedEx guy for dropping something in the yard with three dogs waiting, when it said "perishable" all over it and was clearly food. Because, you know, I would have liked some of those truffles!
Nope, no white chocolate incident. Jen was at the store and overheard someone telling someone else that they feed their dogs biscuit dipped in white chocolate all the time. So, that made me think about it and ask...
