No, dogs cannot eat peeled or seedless grapes or raisins—which are dried grapes—and they are not safe in any amount. The exact cause of toxicity in dogs after they ingest a grape is not known, nor is the amount. Some dogs may suffer more severe reactions than others.
What happens if a dog eat seedless grapes?
When we talk about grapes (of any color and including seedless), we are also talking about raisins, currants, and grape juice. These fruits contain toxins that can poison your dog and potentially cause acute kidney failure and even death in 72 hours or less.
Will my dog be okay if it ate 1 grape?
Yes. Even one grape can make a dog sick no matter their size, age and overall health. Eating just one grape, however, may produce less severe symptoms of grape toxicity than eating several. The more grapes a dog has eaten relative to their body weight, the more danger they are in.
What should I do if my dog ate grapes?
Seek veterinary care immediately. You can prevent many of the negative effects of grape or raisin consumption if your dog is treated quickly enough. Once you get to a vet, the treatment plan for your dog is very simple. It often begins with induced vomiting to remove the fruit from your dog's system.
Will 2 grapes hurt my dog?
Grapes and grape containing products are poisonous to dogs. This includes grape jelly or juice, as well as dried grapes (raisins), and even currants which belong to the same family as grapes. The mechanism of poisoning is currently unknown, but grape poisoning can cause severe kidney failure in some dogs.
