Comments on: Dogs and Raisins: A Toxic Mix http://www.boulderdog.net/2010/04/06/dogs-and-raisins-a-toxic-mix/ For the love of dogs and their people Wed, 05 Oct 2011 13:05:27 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Deborah Flick http://www.boulderdog.net/2010/04/06/dogs-and-raisins-a-toxic-mix/#comment-1260 Deborah Flick Thu, 03 Jun 2010 20:59:34 +0000 http://www.boulderdog.net/?p=1361#comment-1260 Dear Laurie Dear Laurie I´m so sorry. I know how gut-wrenching it is when our dogs are ill. I know what you mean by ¨sick with worry.¨ I´ve been there with Sadie and with my previous dogs. It sounds like you are doing all the right things–you took your pup to the vet within an hour, IV fluids for 48 hours, and charcoal to remove toxins. Know you´re not alone in praying for your pup´s full recovery. Reply Dear Laurie

My whole family is on pins and needles waiting to find out if our little dog will be okay. He got into my daughter's trail mix today. I knew that raisins were toxic, so we got him to the vet within the hour or so. He'll be there for 2 full days. My kids are extremely upset, as am I. It was an unfortunate accident and I blame myself. Our little dog has been through so much already . We just adopted him about three months ago, and I know he hasn't had the best life so far. I just pray that he is one of the lucky ones. I have no idea how much he ate, but when they got him to vomit, they counted about 6. He's only 15 lbs. They did the charcoal, and he's now on IV fluids. I'm so worried that he'll die and my little girl will never forgive herself for leaving them out. They are all sick with worry. I’m so glad your dog is okay.

Even my vet said when she was a kid she fed her dog raisins as treats with no adverse effect. But, I'm with you. I don't like taking chances with Sadie's health.

I'm so glad that it all turned out for the good and that Sadie is okay. I knew a woman who had a Pom that she would feed grapes to as a treat. I continually informed her that grapes are poisonous but she never listened and insisted it was fine. I will never understand why some people don't listen to all the evidence.
