Since toxins in grapes may cause damage to the dog's kidneys, you need to go to the veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. If you are not sure how many grapes your dog eats, or you know that your dog eats a lot of grapes, don't wait until the problem arises before going to the veterinarian, take the dog to the clinic or emergency center immediately.

You can provide some extra support to the dog while waiting for the veterinarian. Some people like to drink some milk or water for their dogs to help dilute any toxins or help the dog excrete. But these practices may increase the burden on the dog or have bad side effects, so it is better to wait for guidance from a veterinarian.

To prevent your dog from eating grapes, you need to take some precautions. First, before you buy any food or snacks for your dog, check food safety guidelines and determine if they are suitable for dogs.

Secondly, keep grapes or raisins in a place that the dog cannot reach and check the fruit basket or refrigerator at any time to make sure the dog is unable to access the food.

Dogs are good friends of humans, and we need to do everything possible to ensure their health and safety. When an accident or accident occurs, we need to respond calmly and take action in a timely manner. Although the effects of grape toxins are not common, Yiai Guinuan recommends avoiding the dog eating grapes and raisins as much as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble for the dog.
