Sailboat - You’re so sweet!
I called Tufts e-room and was told to call poison control. The nice poison control doctor told me to induce vomiting and to check the puke for grape parts. I’m still waiting for them to puke. Then I have to call her back.
About to give them their second dose.
Oh my gosh, those photos of them in the car are* too cute*!!
Warning. I can’t be sure if it’s that link or not, but while looking around on that site I got an alert and my computer now appears to be infected with some sort of “FakeAlert trojan”.
Forgot to say, calling poison control cost $65.
And we’re still waiting for the puking to start. They’re on their second dose of hydrogen peroxide.
It took me two doses to get Simone to puke. Good luck. Both dogs, or just one?
It came very quickly after the second dose. Ginger puked twice, Holly once and we got proof that Ginger does in fact eat most of the food.
But, there was no sign of any grape residue of any kind and poison control said to take them to the ER. So, we’re off to Tufts.
My job as a puppy mommy is off to a roaring great start. 
Back from the ER. The consensus is…
We have the cutest puppies ever.
Actually, they were given checkups and activated charcoal. We have them back at home now and we’re watching them for any sign of illness until Monday. At the first sign of them being sick, back to the ER we go. After 24 hours, we should be in the clear. I’m going to check in with the local vet on Monday anyway.
Sailboat I can’t begin to express how much I appreciate your help. Even if this episode had amounted to nothing at all, the knowledge was very valuable because I’ll never feed my babies grapes again. In addition, I’ll always research every human food before I give them even a nibble.
I love my little girls and I couldn’t bear if they got sick, especially because of something I gave them.
meh, they’re OK…
whispers Hooze da pretty doggies? Hoose da pretty doggies? You iz! Yes you iz!
3 months and 20 lbs? Heh! They are going to be a lot bigger than 35-40 lbs I’m willing to bet. Also they are are completely huggable.
I’m working on becoming a deranged cat lady someday, but those doggies rate a big squeeeee! from me nonetheless. They are lucky doggies, yes they are, they are lucky lucky doggies, who’s a good doggies, who, who’s a good doggies???
I think you’re doing a good job so far. And glad to hear it looks like things will be okay!
But I insist on regular photo updates, just to be sure. 
I think your pups are adorable.
The grape thing is interesting. Back when I was a kid, we had a mixed breed dog. He ate grapes all the time, but only if they were peeled. This was back in the 70s. I had no idea then that grapes were considered poison to dogs. Anyway, the point of this little story is that they never affected my dog negatively at all.
Give your pups some scritches from me.
Yeah, as you may have inferred from what I wrote, the various things I’ve heard in person and found online seem to disagree wildly about the amount of grapes that will cause serious trouble, from gorging on a pound or more to as little as a handful of raisins.
A big part of the problem is that no one seems to know (yet) what chemical (or combination) causes the harm to dog kidney function.
It’s even more difficult to nail down what a dangerous dosage might be because dogs vary wildly in body weight, different grape grape varieties probably have sharply differing levels of the chemical(s) [and people probably don’t even know many varieties when reporting incidents], and it could even be a pesticide used in grape agriculture and not grapes per se.
That’s what the vet said too. No one knows what the deal is so it’s better to be safe than sorry.
They’ve passed the 24 hour watch window and they’re both looking happy and healthy. They also smell nicer because they both got a bath. I love the smell of a clean dog.
We didn’t much want to bring them on another car trip today but Adam’s parents were having a get together for the joint birthday (me and his brother). So, we took them to meet the family. The first few minutes were tense but they both started opening up quite a bit.
There were 5 (besides us) adults, 6 kids, and 2 Pomeranians at the house. Everyone but the Poms fell in love with Ginger and Holly and the girls very quickly realized they liked everyone.
There were a couple of threats of dognapping and the girls got to run in the fenced yard (we can’t get our yard fenced 'til the spring).
All in all, it was a great day for the puppies.
People at the Dope always give the best info, don’t they?
The problem with grapes- unlike onions, for instance, that can cause kidney failure in dogs-- is that dogs actually LIKE grapes, and even raisins.
I’m glad that your puppies seem ok, they are simply adorable.
Our dog, Sam likes Onion just fine. Please don’t arc up about that, we don’t deliberately feed him Onion. But on one or two occasions we realised after or during giving him some leftovers that there was onion in it. 
There are only two things we have discovered thus far that our dog won’t eat, Lemons and Lychees. 
And to the OP - they look absolutely adorable.
Those are some seriously cute dogs. I wish I had never seen them! : )
My beagle will literally eat dog crap but he won’t touch raisins. Go figure.
In any event, the girls are adorable. Thanks for posting their picture!
I was about to get up to bring them outside when my boyfriend went to do it. So, I decided I’d stay in bed and relax.
Ten minutes later, I was woken out of my peaceful doze by to insane puppies licking my face and neck.
If it wasn’t so awesome, I’d have been annoyed.
They both really liked the bed and I told them they can sleep there when they’re properly potty trained.
They are just adorable!
Glad they’re OK, and had a good time at the party!
