Is it true that feeding a dog grapes or raisin causes them a brain damage?

I read it once but is it true?Is it true that feeding a dog grapes or raisin causes them a brain damage?
Do NOT feed your dog:


Baby food can contain onion powder, which can be toxic to dogs. In addition, it can result in nutritional deficiencies especially if fed in large amounts. Simply stated, it鈥檚 best to avoid since this could be toxic to dogs. That鈥檚 why it鈥檚 called baby food and not dog food.





Table scraps in large amounts could be classified as toxic food for dogs. Why? Because they鈥檙e not nutritionally balanced. They should never be more than 10% of your dog鈥檚 diet. Fat should be trimmed from meat and bones should definitely not be fed. Cooked meat and cooked fats are carcinogenic to dogs.





Bones from fish and cooked bones can obstruct the digestive system. Not good!





Chocolate, coffee, tea, and caffeinated drinks are bad. They contain caffeine which could be toxic and impact the heart and nervous systems.





Citrus oil extracts result in vomiting. Stay away!





Grapes and raisins contain unknown toxins which can do damage to the kidneys. Definitely considered toxic food for dogs.





Large amounts of cooked liver cause Vitamin A toxicity, which impacts muscles and bones. Yet another item which is toxic to dogs.





Macadamia nuts, like grapes and raisins, contain unknown toxins.





Spoiled food and garbage 鈥?just don鈥檛 go there. Definitely considered toxic for dogs.





Mushrooms can result in shock and cause death.





Alcohol can result in coma and death.





Bread dough can result in a bloated belly and then disorientation and vomiting. Since it yeast that hasn鈥檛 risen yet, you do not want it to expand in Fido鈥檚 belly, much less get stuck in the intestines! This, like the other items on the list, could be toxic to dogs.





Onions and garlic, whether it鈥檚 raw, cooked, or powder in large amounts have the ability to damage red blood cells and cause anemia.





As for chemicals, dogs need to be kept away from all antifreeze spills since this could be hazardous and toxic to dogs. While the sweet smell and taste may be attractive to his sensitive nose, if your dog consumes any amount of antifreeze, rush him immediately to the veterinarian. (Check your garage and driveway for spills and clean these up before your pet has a chance to smell and potentially ingest this!)





Xylitol is a sugar-alcohol sweetener contained in chewing gum and candy. Seizures, lethargy and weakness are the result if dogs consume significant amounts of this chemical.





Ibuprofen, like antifreeze, may smell sweet. Dogs will eat it if they鈥檙e found lying on the floor and don鈥檛 be surprised if your dog tries to chew threw a bottle to eat the entire contents. This is definitely toxic to dogs. It causes ulceration and perforates the lining of the stomach, and decreases the blood flow to the kidneys. Yet again, toxic to dogs.Is it true that feeding a dog grapes or raisin causes them a brain damage?

Raisins and grapes are toxic to dogs and can kill them. I don't think it causes brain damage but rather kidney damage.
I've never heard anything about brain damage, however I do know that they carry something that turns to a harmful bacteria in dogs. They can become very sick.
No, but it has been proven that grapes and raisins can cause kidney damage and kidney failure. Don't feed them to your dog.
I don't know if it causes brain damage, but they are poison to a dog. Along with tomatoes and chocolate. I don't know what the effect will be, but I heard it can stop their heart.
I heard they are not good for them, but i dont know if they cause brain damage. Chocolate is also very poisonous for dogs and can make them really sick
Grapes and Raisins cause kidney damage!!! DON'T feed them to your dog.
Last year one of my dogs ate a 24 oz box of raisins and nearly died. He had to spend Saturday and Sunday at the emergency clinic. Raisins and grapes can shut down a dog's kidneys. The vet told us it was only that we caught it so soon that saved him, he hadn't begun to show any symptoms except excessive thirst.





So, no to brain damage but yes, definitely raisins and grapes are toxic. They can be fatal.
