I would advise everybody to check in on it. I surely wouldn't advise you calling it just a myth without checking, but until I'm sure Okie and Fanny sure aren't getting any more grapes or rasins or their by products until I'm sure.
The letter is from Laurinda Morris DVM. Danville Veterinary Clinic Danville, Ohio. To me this is enough warning to check, cause I love my little buddy's, and I would never try to intentionally try to harm them, and if somebody give me any warning that may harm them, I sure would check on it.
Maybe every dog is different just like every human is different, what would kill one, might not even make the other sick, but it could be doing harm, even though it isn't showing him throwing up, which they say that is one of the first signs, their bodies trying to get rid of it.
Hollowpoint, now my Okie is the same color as your Radar, outside Radar has got 110 pounds on him, but my Okie has a lot of white now just like his daddy has in his hair, but he comes out to about 93 in dog years, so he's my little old man now, but he don't like to be called old man, and Fanny is about four years younger ,and a long hair black and tan.
Radar looks like he would be a real lovable dog. I wonder about the other fruits myself, I know the vet recommends rice, when they were sick, but I eat oatmeal every morning, and I try to have fruit on it, and I try to leave them some
Now one morning I left a tiny piece of pear, and I figured they would eat it, cause it was so small, and they eat the oatmeal so fast, but when they were done, that tiny piece of pear was still in there, but they will eat apples though.
Grapes, and apples is the only thing I haft to check on, cause mine won't eat bananas, pears, or pinapples.
I wonder about these dogfood places that say never feed your dog table scraps, that they won't live long, well Okie is older then my Vets Dashounds, to when he had to put his down, so I can't be feeding him to awful bad, and he might be carrying close to 1 pound over weight, so he stays fit. I don't know how, maybe from all the no answers he gets from Fanny, cause she went to the vet, and she doesn't do that anymore.
But check into that about the grapes, and if you find out before I do, would you let me know Hollowpoint, for like I said my kids loved grapes to, and I'm going to see if my vet here in town knows anything about it. Take good care of Radar

I got an E-mail the other day which is supposed to be from a animal clinic, or started from an animal clinic anway, it talked about Raisins and Grapes being poison to dogs.
