Maybe you all knew about this but I didn't-Important!

Post by Sue and Kids »

Today I received an email from my good friend Geney (head of our local no-kill Humane Society) concerning dog safety.

Grapes and raisins are fatal to dogs! I knew about chocolate and onions, but not this! I don't know if my Sparky would eat a grape or not, and luckily, he doesn't care for sweets (like oatmeal raisin cookies). But other dogs are at risk.

Please go to this link and read the article:

I apologize if you've seen all this before. I figured I'd rather repeat it and maybe save someone's dog's life than just assume everyone knew it.

Traci and Davet, I didn't know if this is covered on the forum somewhere else, but I just felt I had to post it. If you want to move it, whatever, feel free, of course.

Reminders never hurt!

Also, you can check the ASPCA's toxin database too for many other toxins.
