At which point do carbohydrates become a problem in a dog's diet?

Can one use something like corn flakes as treats?

Pic related - I don't own dogs (or even like them in general) but this fucker acts like a nobleman all the time, and as such I feel the need to care. However considering he is really tiny I get worried that even small starchy/sugary treats may cause him trouble.
(I'm not the one giving him treats btw)

Is this worry unfounded and / or exaggerated? What is the worst that could happen? Bad breath? Liver cancer?

essentially never.

they can lead to obesity and diabetes, but a fair argument can be made that this is a problem of too much food, not just too much carbs.
