So we have grapes, raisins and chocolate.  Is there anything else I
should know about.
Thanks

Yes, grapes and raisins are poisonous to dogs.  It isn't exactly
understood if it is the grapes, the seeds or a particular type of grape.
Some dogs seem to be able to tolerate more than other dogs.  Some dogs
don't seem to be affected at all.  I have read accounts of small dogs
becoming ill with only 20 grapes.  Larger dogs can tolerate larger
amounts.  It is also thought that the effect increases cumulatively, so
even if the grapes were ingested months apart the effect is the same as
if they were eaten all at once.

but like I said the actual component of grapes that causes the problem
isn't

known.  Or at least at my last reading about it it wasn't known.
