I know chocolate is bad for dogs.

Are grapes? :-?

I know that they spit grapes out :-?

Wouldn't imagine they'd do any harm.

mine have eaten about ten each so far, they seem to enjoy them, but I dont know about giving them any more.

The wee fellah has a habit of throwing up.

Maybe they enjoy them so much because the grapes are frozen.

My wee treat. :y

Personally i would just keep an eye on them....before rushing to them to the vets.

Or you could try what the vet will do probably......get them to vomit.....easier said than done tho....mustard down the throat will do the trick.....but try getting a dog to let you do that  ::) ;D

If they want to eat grass... let them. it helps them bring up anything thats upsetting their stomachs. apart from that wait and see. To be honest, my dogs had a couple of grapes in the past with no problems...

My Dad give his Labrador a carrot every day or perhaps an apple, Our lab will eat about anything she can get. She eats the cat's food overnight and thinks we don't know... The bowl moves if the dog eats from it, and not the cat..... :D :D :D

Our pugs love 'human' food rather than dog food. They don't get their own way though  ;)
They have had a grape each but don't actually eat it. They will play with it until it bursts and then they lose interest
We wouldn't ever give them any nuts due to the choking possibility as well as the toxins
Chocolate is poisonous to dogs but it's the amount compared to their size. Now and again we will give ours a little piece of dairy chocolate as they hate dog chocolate.
Their favourite treat is cooked and dried unsalted bacon
