Is Cantabrian Draba toxic to dogs?

Draba dedeana

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists cantabrian draba 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. The genus Draba does not appear on the ASPCA Toxic or Non-Toxic Plant database. As a Brassicaceae member it may contain mild glucosinolates; classified mildly-toxic as a precaution pending authoritative data.
