Is Antimima dualis toxic to dogs?

Mildly. The ASPCA lists antimima dualis as mildly toxic to dogs — a chewing dog typically gets mouth irritation, drooling, and vomiting rather than a medical emergency, but it is still best kept out of reach. Antimima is not individually listed by the ASPCA as toxic or non-toxic, and the genus is absent from the ASPCA non-toxic list, so its pet status is unconfirmed. Mesemb foliage is generally high in soluble oxalates; treat with caution and verify with a vet rather than assuming it is pet-safe.

Mesemb foliage is generally high in soluble oxalates; treat with caution and verify with a vet rather than assuming it is pet-safe. Signs usually appear soon after chewing rather than hours later — watch for drooling, pawing at the mouth, vomiting, loss of appetite, or unusual lethargy after your dog has had access to antimima dualis.

Stay calm. Remove any plant from your dog's mouth and take the plant away. Note how much was eaten and when, and do not induce vomiting unless told to. Call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435 and follow their advice; a leaf or photo helps the vet treat it correctly.

The ASPCA classification Growli uses applies to both cats and dogs: Antimima dualis is mildly toxic to cats as well. See the full antimima dualis pet-safety guide for both species.
