4. Health problems caused by grapes
The organ that usually gets affected when a dog eats
grapes is the kidney. When the kidney is affected then
the condition is considered to be in the advanced

responsible for removing toxins from the body
through the urine.

longer get rid of the toxins in the body. The final stage
of grape poisoning is characterized by the decrease in
the ability of the dog to produce urine.
The dog usually dies when he can no longer produce
urine. Kidney failure can come very quickly. This is the
reason why you should be extra careful not to feed
that fruit to your pet.

grapes, do not fret. As a first aid, you can give your
dog some burnt toast, which may help in absorbing
