Grapes are also highly toxic for dogs and cats. I find it interesting how Blueberries taste a lot like grapes sometimes So our canine friends are not really missing out.

 

I haven't tried giving Capone any berries since I knew that grapes are poisonous for dogs. These three berries that dog can eat are good news to me as it is now summer and these berries are very affordable and fresh. I gave him bit and pieces of apple and carrots. I have to be very careful when giving him new food as he has sensitive stomach.

Thanks for the link to that article! It is good to know blueberries, blackberries and strawberries are safe for treats!

 

This is scary, I had no idea that most berries are poisonous to dogs! I'm glad I've never shared my raspberries and grapes with Homer.

To be honest, I'm not sure if he likes strawberries and blueberries. My parents grow them in their garden and he always ignores them. Maybe he doesn't see them as food.

 

I'm glad you found this useful, Claudine. I had no idea most berries were poisonous either, I had my doubts about blackberries! I did know about grapes, they are also toxic to cats. I think the same thing can be said about those berries and cats. So many hidden dangers in an average home.

 

You are welcome Yes, I posted this because I don't think many dog owners are very aware of this. It's amazing how sensitive and vulnerable our furred 4 legged pals are!

 

Just an update, this past month our local fruits and vegetables market having a great price on blueberries, so I bought some and shared with Capone! OMG-he loves them. I don't give him a lot but more like 10 for me, and 1 for Capone

 

@IcyBC I am sure he was more than happy you decided to share with him! It feels so great you are indulging with your best friend, and he is not going to get sick as a result. I miss those blueberries They remind me of grapes a little bit, but they are oh so healthy!

 

I bet he thinks they're candies
My Homer ate some blueberries this summer too. Of course he loved them He loves everything.
