Poisonous Plants to Avoid
Protecting Pets from Poisonous Plants
Keeping your pets safe starts with knowing what hazards to avoid—especially in your home and garden. Many common plants can be toxic to dogs and cats. Ingesting even a small amount can lead to vomiting, diarrhea, organ failure, or worse. If you think your pet has ingested a toxic plant, contact us or an emergency veterinarian immediately.
