Fruit loving dalmation/rotty

You'll get a kick out of this. I live on a small farm and I have a dog that accompanies me everywhere outside, working alongside me always. He has a thing for eating the cherries, raspberries, blackberries, and even went as far as to eat the berries from the dead asparagus ferns that I was cutting down for burning in the "bad" debris pile. He makes me laugh. Even when I pick the broccoli and put it in a pail (or any other kind of vegie) he will always make sure he has his supply by eating right out of the bucket too. His appetite for the good food in life is awesome, and he also loves the carnivour end of things too. Good for my pooch!!!!

Grapes are toxic? How toxic? Gabby likes grapes, and so does my mom's dog...luckily we rarely buy them. No more grapes I guess!!

There are quite a few foods that are bad for dogs including tomatoes, grapes and raisins can cause liver failure. My vet told me not to give my dog raisins and grapes for sure but some of the other stuff is ok in small quantities. There is one veg I can't think of it but it is really bad for dogs, it might be advacoto (spelling?) but fruit seeds and pits are bad too.
