Hi there! First of all, take a deep breath—it's completely understandable to feel worried right now. 😊 Grapes can indeed be dangerous for dogs, and some dogs can have a bad reaction to even a small amount, leading to kidney problems. But don't panic, let's figure this out together.
Watch Bella closely for any of these symptoms over the next 24 hours:
- Vomiting
- Lethargy or seeming unusually tired
- Loss of appetite
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
If you notice any of these signs, or if you're unsure how many grapes she ate and are concerned, it's a good idea to call your vet promptly. They'll give you the best advice based on Bella's size and health.
While waiting, make sure Bella has access to plenty of fresh water. Staying hydrated is important if she has an upset stomach. If she's acting fine and didn't eat too many, you might get lucky, but monitor her just in case.
If she shows severe symptoms like not peeing, vomiting more than once, or if you know she ate a large amount, then you should definitely call your vet or an emergency clinic right away.
You're being a great pet parent by being proactive and cautious. Trust your instincts—it's okay to reach out for help if you're worried.
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
