Could we make a Sticky Toxic Plant list? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

xtine · 08-28-2005, 05:17 PM

I was thinking if it would be a good idea to have a sticky of the most common toxic plants in the yorkie health section. just so that new dog owners could see it and maybe it could be helpful later on down the road. and so it could be readily available for everyone to read

oh and sorry if someone already posted this idea

i think that would be an awsome idea!!! it could really help some one in an emergency.

Thats a good idea. When my min pin ate a house plant I was looking all over the web to find a list. That was before I ever was apart of this forum. He got so sick though. He was vomiting blood. I then found out that most of my house plants were poisonous to dogs. He was fine like 2 hours later but until that day I only knew about obvious plants such as pointsettas. So I think that would be great for everyone to know

Yes, that is a good idea, do we have a master list of possibly toxic foods too? Like chocolate, grapes, raisins, etc...

I would love to know what foods to not give Lily. What is it about grapes and raisins that dogs can't have? Anyone know?

I believe there's toxins within that can harm our Yorkies. Here's some threads on it:

Avocado leaves and the seed are poisonous.

Shanatink · 08-28-2005, 09:07 PM

I know kalanchoe plant is poisonous to dogs. Thats what my min pin ate. He projectile vomited and diarhea blood!

It was awful for the poor little guy.

fasteddie · 08-28-2005, 09:41 PM

That'd be awesome, xtine!

The more information gathered in one place, the better!
