POISONOUS PLANTS


Dogs love to explore. They love to sniff, taste and scratch their environment. Unfortunately, there are some things that are dangerous to dogs. So before your dog comes into your home, take some time to make sure your dog’s living areas are free of poisonous plants and poisons of all kinds.

Some poisons are obvious, like chemicals, cleaners, antifreeze and medicines; read about Home Safety for more on these poisons. But some poisons are harder to spot, like houseplants. The plants listed below range from mildly irritating to downright dangerous to a dog. Since the age, breed and size of your dog can change the effect these plants will have, please speak to your veterinarian about any concerns.
