The Ultimate List of Toxic Plants for Dogs
Having indoor plants can be beneficial for humans; they look nice, purify our air, and help us breathe easier. But some of these same plants have potential to be deadly for our canine counterparts.
In some cases, only a single part of the plant is poisonous to dogs (e.g. roots, leaves, seeds, sprouts, etc) but to be safe, we are ruling out the entire plant for your dog’s safety.
If you find that your dog has eaten any part of these plants bring them in to a veterinarian immediately for evaluation.
Symptoms of toxic plant ingestion include:
- Vomiting
- Lethargy
- Diarrhea
- Drooling
- Nausea
- Weakness
To find out if your household plant is toxic to your dog, press CTRL+F (or Command+F on a Mac) and then enter your plant’s type into the search box!
