The purpose of this page is to help you, the dog owners, know and be aware of plants and flowers that are toxic for your dog.
Mother Nature offers us an array of plants - green and flowering - that come in many different sizes, shapes and forms. While many plants produce fruit and flowers that are fragrant, delicious, and nutritious for your dog, there are many others that are actually poisonous and can put your dog at risk that range between a mild rash to, in some cases, death.
Dogs, and especially puppies, tend to sniff and chew on anything within reach. While a grown up dog may have a bit more tolerance to some of the toxic plants and flowers, your puppy - whose immune system is not fully developed - is more likely to have a more severe, often violent, reaction.
Dog owners should be aware of the type of plants and/or flowers that fall under the category of "Toxic" and make sure to either place them in a place where their dog cannot reach or… do without them altogether.
Below you will find a list of some of the most popular house and garden plants and flowers that are toxic to your dog. By CLICKING on the name of the particular plant or flower, a new window will open which will display an actual image of that particular plant or flower, as well as the part of the plant or flower that is toxic and the symptoms that these plants or flowers can produce when your dog comes in contact with or ingests that particular part.
Pease note: We bring this page as a courtesy service to our clients as well as the public in general. We have done the best we could to be as accurate as possible, yet we still recommend you double check its accuracy in places like www.wikipedia.org or the American Association of Poison Control Centers.
