Like the stunning lilies many of us get at Easter or the aloe vera plant we use for burns. These plants are poison for your dog. Ferns, avocado and ivy are also poisonous.
Your pooch may never touch any of these plants or he/she may simply take a sniff and move on. Puppies are typically the worst offenders when it comes to eating plants and flowers. They eat nearly everything.
There's also the dog that throughout his/her life will chow down on whatever they can sink their teeth into. These challenging pups would consume a tree if left alone with it long enough.
To keep your dog safe, put plants out of reach. Also, train your ?Fido? to ?leave it? or ?off?. If your dog does happen to munch down on a poisonous plant, immediately call your veterinarian or animal emergency hospital and follow their advice. If you need to take your dog to see a veterinarian, bring the plant or a piece of it so it can be properly identified.
The following is a list of the most common poisonous plants for dogs. Read it and check it before shopping for plants or landscaping.
