Rosie today has been acting very tires which is not her usual personality. Rosie ate a couple grapes a few days ago and now she is acting strange and she threw up solid food. Her feces has been normal. She also has been around chicken feces when we were cleaning there bedding. We don't know what's wrong with her. Her usual personality in very feisty and crazy.

Oh no, poor Rosie! Grapes are highly toxic to dogs and can cause acute kidney failure, leading to signs of lethargy, vomiting and inappetence. Rosie needs to go to an ER vet immediately, as this could be a life-threatening emergency. The vet will be able to examine her, determine her kidney values on lab testing (CBC, chemistry, urinalysis), and start her on IV fluid therapy with other supportive medications. Good luck!

It could be the grapes that she ate causing her symptoms. Grapes are toxic to dogs, leading to kidney failure, and it can take a couple of days for symptoms to appear. It also possible the chicken feces has made her sick if she ate any. I would take her into a vet immediately since she recently ate something toxic to dogs (the grapes) to be safe. She should have a physical exam, blood tests, and urinalysis to check on her kidney function. I would take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet can be found on the clinic's answering machine or website. Please take her into a vet now.

Thank you for contacting Pet Coach with your question about Soja. I do not recommend including vomiting at home. This is because hydrogen peroxide, which is frequently used at home by owners to induce vomiting, can and does cause gastritis and esophagitis often worse than the initial problem. In addition, given that it's been two hours, it's past the time to induce vomiting. Depending on how many grapes Soja ate, he may be fine. The only problem with grapes is that we don't know the amount needed to cause kidney failure. I would monitor him, and take him into the vet first thing in the morning for baseline blood work to get kidney values. Repeat this blood work in four days to check how his kidneys are functioning. If you see signs such as vomiting, lethargy, weakness, increased or decreased thirst, or increased or decreased urination, take him into a vet immediately. Best of luck, I hope this helps!

This sounds quite serious, and I would take Frost into a vet immediately. The problem with grapes is that we don't know the amount needed to cause kidney failure, and even one or two could potentially cause it. It's concerning he won't eat or drink, and is vomiting everything, and that can be signs of kidney failure . He needs veterinary care now, please take him into a vet immediately. Best of luck.
