Toxic Greenery
While dogs in the wild may instinctively avoid toxic plants, your dog may not be as savvy. Make the choices simple for your pet: keep the harmful plants listed below out of your house and garden. This list is not an exhaustive one, so always double-check with your vet; some toxic plants may be particular to your area.
A dog's reaction to ingesting a toxic plant can be fairly mild, or the dog may become dehydrated, suffer from diarrhea or even die. If your pet has eaten some dangerous greenery, contact your vet immediately.
