Is Brillantaisia subulugurica toxic to dogs?

Brillantaisia subulugurica

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists brillantaisia subulugurica 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. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. Brillantaisia subulugurica is not individually listed by the ASPCA, and the genus Brillantaisia does not appear on its toxic or non-toxic plant lists. With no authoritative ASPCA grounding, treat it as uncertain and potentially mildly toxic; keep it away from cats and dogs and verify with a vet if ingested.
