Is Brazilian Jasmine toxic to dogs?

Mildly. The ASPCA lists brazilian jasmine 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. Mandevilla sanderi (dipladenia) is not individually listed by the ASPCA, so its status is uncertain; treat with caution and verify with a vet. As a dogbane-family (Apocynaceae) plant it produces a milky latex sap that can irritate skin and mucous membranes and may cause gastrointestinal upset if ingested. Keep away from pets and children.

As a dogbane-family (Apocynaceae) plant it produces a milky latex sap that can irritate skin and mucous membranes and may cause gastrointestinal upset if ingested. Keep away from pets and children. 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 brazilian jasmine.

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: Brazilian Jasmine is mildly toxic to cats as well. See the full brazilian jasmine pet-safety guide for both species.
