Our family dog always begged for grapes. But she would just roll them around in her mouth for a while, and spit them out unchewed.

I wonder how clear cut the link is between grapes and health problems. The ASPCA article linked to above says "some sensitive dogs" have problems, that it's not known how grapes would cause a problem, and that the problem might not show up for several days. Then how do they know the grapes caused this problem? These are dogs we're talking about! God knows what they've been eating besides the grapes!

my gf's 1 yr old golden retriever loves fruits, including grapes. she jumps and steals apples from their apple tree, oranges, and even grape fruits.

I wonder if it's more of an allergic reaction. It could explain why there's plenty of dogs out there that eat grapes without harm. BUT I think I'll keep grapes away from my dog, not that I"ve ever given them any...

grapes are toxic to dogs...it damages their kidneys.

here is a list of other foods that are toxic to dogs:
brocoli, macadamia nuts, onions, etc...
