Hi there! No worries at all—it's great that you're reaching out to ensure Max stays healthy. Grapes, unfortunately, are a no-go for dogs. Even small amounts can be toxic and lead to severe kidney damage. So, it's best to avoid giving Max any grapes or raisins.
If Max somehow gets into some grapes, keep an eye out for symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or decreased appetite. These signs might show up within a few hours of ingestion.
- Emergency: If Max has eaten a grape, even just one, it's usually considered an emergency. Call your vet immediately or visit an emergency pet clinic.
- At Home: There isn't much you can do at home for grape ingestion, so it's important to reach out to a vet promptly.
- Mild Symptoms: Even if symptoms seem mild, it’s important to consult a vet. Don’t wait for them to improve on their own.
If you're unsure or your pet’s symptoms worsen, it's best to book a call with a vet on Dial A Vet for professional advice.
The "Ask a Vet" forum on Dial A Vet offers general information and helpful tips on pet health, but it's
not a substitute for professional veterinary care. The advice here doesn't create a veterinarian-client-patient relationship, and our vets can't diagnose or treat your pet remotely.
For emergencies or specific medical concerns, always contact your local veterinarian immediately. Your pet's health is unique, and decisions should only be made after consulting with a qualified professional. By using this forum, you acknowledge these limitations and agree to seek in-person veterinary advice for all your pet's health needs. View our
