Although it's usually cats who are attracted to the color and taste of plants, your dog may be tempted to eat them... and there are some very toxic ones to him! We're talking about poisonous dog plants. Notes!
Poisonous dog plants
Some of them can be found at home. For us they are a decorative element or their care a hobby, but for our pirates are quite dangerous. This is the list of poisonous dog plants.
Dieffenbachia
This plant, very common in homes, can cause serious damage to your dog. If you eat it, your mouth will become irritated, and may even become blistered. Your digestive tract will also be affected and vomiting and diarrhea will be common.
Lily of the valleys
Keep your furry away!
Azalea
Azalea is a highly toxic plant for dogs. This would be a fairly light effect when compared to the drop in blood pressure you may suffer, causing the coma, even death.
Tulip
How beautiful the tulips are! However, they are one of the poisonous dog plants.
Although the entire plant is poisonous, its bulb is the one that can cause the most damage to your furry.
Amaryllis
The effects of this plant are of the most diverse and serious: vomiting, diarrhea, hyper salivation, tremors... and even depression.
Autumn Narcissus or Dog Killer
With this name it is not surprising that it is among the poisonous dog plants.
Symptoms may take a while, but it causes severe damage to some organs, such as the kidneys and liver.
Jacinto
Its toxins are mainly concentrated in the bulb and can cause mouth and esophageal irritation. This will cause your dog to drool constantly and vomit, have diarrhea or both.
Cyclamen
This is one of the poisonous dog plants, but it is also for humans. They are very toxic and cause serious gastrointestinal problems.
Sago Palm or Fake Palm
The damage this plant does to dogs is so great that it can cause death to your pet.
Your intake will cause severe episodes of diarrhea and vomiting with blood. This is because the seeds of the plant have a toxic substance called cycasiin, which causes blood clotting problems, causing liver failure.
Kalanchoe
Given the active substances it contains, such as triterpenes or buffoonene, your dog will end up with diarrhea and vomiting if you eat this plant.
Easter Blossom
This is one of the poisonous dog plants that are also toxic to cats. And a lot!
Easter Blossom adorns our homes at Christmas and many people are unaware of how dangerous it is for their pets, as their simple contact can cause dermatitis and if they eat it, vomiting and diarrhea.
Marijuana
A small intake of marijuana will affect your dog's driving ability. You won't be able to move normally, so the risk of accident is high. It can also cause digestive and behavioral problems.
