LOS ALAMOS – She has a bark that’s been heard from coast to coast and probably beyond.

Sydnee, a six year old Australian shepherd, made national news by barking from one to ten on command in front of our news camera getting rewarded with a raisin after reaching each number.

That sparked a flurry of e-mails and phone calls from concerned viewers on the Central Coast and across the country about the danger of giving raisins to dogs.

“People are worried, they’re calling me, I was surprised”, says Sydnee’s owner Maxine Davis who says she knows about giving raisins to dogs, “I heard that, I heard that, I just didn’t believe it and I still don’t believe it.”

Whether you “believe” it or not, it's true and you need to stop giving the goddamn raisins to your dog! She counts on you to take care of her and do what's right, so it's time to start! Idiot.

And respected herbalist and dog breeder Juliette de Bairacli Levy used them as part of her dogs’ diet for decades. Doesn’t anyone wonder why raisin toxicity is only a recent issue? I believe other factors have come in to play that no one has really looked in to. Chemicals on the raisins, perhaps, or maybe even an interaction with flea spot-on chemicals in the body (the raisin toxicity issue came up at about the same time as these products came on the market). I appreciate that the veterinarian quoted in the article pointed out that the small amount actually being fed didn’t pose a risk. That’s sensible thinking.
