Dog-Friendly Plants
Non-toxic plants that are safe to grow around dogs. Peace of mind for pet owners who love to garden.
Many common plants are toxic to dogs, ranging from mild stomach upset to severe organ failure. Highly dangerous plants include Sago Palm (liver failure, potentially fatal), Azalea/Rhododendron (cardiovascular collapse), Oleander (heart damage, potentially fatal), and Castor Bean (contains ricin). Common household plants to avoid: Aloe Vera, Pothos, Snake Plant, ZZ Plant, Jade Plant, Peace Lily, and Dieffenbachia. Garden plants to watch for: Tulip and Daffodil bulbs (convulsions, cardiac issues), Autumn Crocus (liver/kidney damage), Hydrangea, Chrysanthemums, and English Ivy. If your dog ingests a toxic plant, contact your veterinarian or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center (888-426-4435) immediately.
