POISON ALERT!
Did you know ...
This is a very sad case - great dog and great owners,
who had no idea that raisins could be a toxin. The
dog was a 56 pound mixed breed Labrador, 5 year old
neutered male, who ate half a cannister of raisins.
Poison Control said as few as 7 raisins or grapes could
be toxic. Many people give their dogs grapes or
raisins as treats, including handlers. Any exposure
should give rise to immediate concern.
Over a period of three days this
dog was hospitalized but in the
end, due to acute renal failure,
his owner had to euthanize him.
Infinite Love
