Is Pinstripe Calathea toxic to dogs?

Goeppertia ornata

Non-toxic to dogs

No — pinstripe calathea is listed by the ASPCA as non-toxic to dogs. It is a sensible choice for a home with a dog; a curious nibble will not poison them, though no plant is meant to be eaten. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. The ASPCA lists Calathea (Calathea spp., family Marantaceae) as non-toxic to dogs, cats, and horses; Goeppertia ornata is the recently reclassified Calathea ornata and belongs to this same genus, all of whose ASPCA-listed members are non-toxic. As with any non-toxic plant, chewing large amounts may still cause mild, passing stomach upset — verify with your vet if your pet has unusual sensitivities.
