My dogs eat grapes in the summer. Nobody has ever got sick on them. I once had a real pig of a bitch who stole a package of Oreo cookies from the grocery bag I was unloading. Before I realized it, the entire package (chocolate cookies) was eaten, and she looked pretty smug. I later found coal black stools in the yard. My vet said not to worry, the chocolate would soon pass from her system. Not a word about it being toxic, but that was a LONG time ago, and that was probably not known at that time.
