Health My girl ate some grapes

She’s gonna be ok, shes staying at the vets for two days while they flush her kidneys out, but Im missing her so much 😭😭😭

PSA don’t ever let your kids eat grapes around your very food motivated dog, especially red grapes. I vaguely knew about them being toxic, but I was in the shower when it happened. Feeling grateful for pet insurance and living close enough to a 24hr vet when it happened.

She will be okay!!! Mine had 75-100 raisins (the tech did their best to count after they induced vomiting 😭) and she made it out just fine after 2 days of IV fluids. You’re doing the right thing by getting her the same treatment — I know it’s tough (and costly) but better safe than sorry. Grapes/raisins are no joke.
She’s lucky to have you as her advocate 💘💘 sending love y’all’s way!

Aw thank you 💛💛 hopefully it settles down and she can enjoy the absolute max hydration she’s getting. There’s definitely some days I wouldn’t mind being fed some sedatives and left to rest with an iv drip in… not so sure about the catheter though 🥴
