What You Need to Know
Grape and raisin toxicity in dogs is uniquely unpredictable — some dogs eat grapes for years without apparent harm while others develop fatal kidney failure from a single grape. The inconsistency makes every exposure a potential emergency. Do not wait to see if symptoms develop — kidney damage may be occurring without obvious signs. Emergency induction of vomiting within 2 hours of ingestion followed by activated charcoal and IV fluid support are the standard treatments. Always treat grape ingestion as an emergency.

Any amount of grapes, raisins, currants, or sultanas should be treated as a potential emergency.
