Yikes! Poor pups, well, poor Kermit. He puked for no good reason (or, no good raisin?!). Glad you sleuthed it out, though!
ACL tear in right hind leg 12/5/12 and scheduled ACL repair surgery 12/21/12. Pre-op xrays revealed osteosarcoma. Amputation 12/28/12. Chemo (carboplatin) started Jan 10, 2013 and ended on April 5, for a total of 5 doses. He handled carbo like a champ! No side effects. We started metronomic therapy at his third chemo and have been also doing some holistic treatments. He's a lively, playful 10 year old huskie-boarder collie and a very proud member of the Winter Warriors! Our love. Our funny little guy!
I'm so glad the pooches are OK! Raisins are scary, we recently did a similar thing when we allowed Wyatt to get at some that we left laying around. He was fine but it was a good lesson for us too.
Poor puky pups! I hope their bellies feel better now.

Ugh! I had to induce vomiting with Libby when she was a pup. She swallowed a baggie. I'm glad Kismet is safe now. 
Liberty (Libby) was diagnosed with OSA on 1-22-13. Right front amputation on 1-31-13. No IV Chemo. Metronomic Therapy started 2-19-13 along with supplements and some home cooking. Lungs clear until 1-06-14. She's still her happy, hoppy, bossy self. Living the dog life to the fullest and a proud Winter Warrior. :) RIP my Libby 4-21-03 to 3-19-14
