My dog ate Keitt Mango — what to do

Step by step

  1. Take keitt mango away and remove any plant material from your dog's mouth so they cannot eat more.
  2. Note roughly how much was eaten and when — this helps the vet judge the risk.
  3. Do NOT induce vomiting unless a vet or poison-control specialist tells you to.
  4. Call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435 (a consultation fee may apply) and follow their advice.
  5. Watch for drooling, pawing at the mouth, vomiting, loss of appetite, or lethargy, and bring a leaf or photo to the appointment.

This is general guidance, not veterinary advice. Pets vary, and a reaction may be to soil, fertiliser, or pesticide as well as the plant. When in doubt, call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435.

My dog ate keitt mango — FAQ

Is keitt mango poisonous to dogs?

Yes — the ASPCA lists Keitt Mango (Mangifera indica 'Keitt') as mildly toxic to dogs. Mango (Mangifera indica) is not individually listed by the ASPCA, so its pet status is uncertain; treat with caution and verify with a vet. The ripe flesh is usually tolerated in small amounts, but the skin, sap and leaves contain urushiol-related compounds (same family as poison ivy and cashew) that can irritate, and the large pit carries a trace of cyanide and a real choking/obstruction risk. Keep peel, pits and clippings away from pets.

How serious is it if my dog ate keitt mango?

Keitt Mango is mildly toxic, so most dogs get short-lived mouth irritation, drooling, and vomiting rather than a life-threatening reaction. It is still worth a vet call to be safe, especially if your dog ate a lot or symptoms persist.

What symptoms should I watch for?

Signs usually appear soon after chewing: drooling, pawing at the mouth, vomiting, loss of appetite, or unusual lethargy. Mango (Mangifera indica) is not individually listed by the ASPCA, so its pet status is uncertain; treat with caution and verify with a vet. The ripe flesh is usually tolerated in small amounts, but the skin, sap and leaves contain urushiol-related compounds (same family as poison ivy and cashew) that can irritate, and the large pit carries a trace of cyanide and a real choking/obstruction risk. Keep peel, pits and clippings away from pets. Any worsening or persistent symptoms warrant an immediate vet visit.

Should I make my dog vomit?

No — do not induce vomiting unless a vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center specifically tells you to. The wrong action can make things worse. Call (888) 426-4435 and follow professional advice.

How do I stop this happening again?

Keep keitt mango well out of reach, or swap it for an ASPCA non-toxic plant — see the best dogs-safe plants list.
