Is Conophytum Minutum toxic to dogs?

Conophytum minutum

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists conophytum minutum 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. Conophytum is not individually listed by the ASPCA, so its toxicity is not formally established. Treat with caution and verify with a vet before assuming safety; keep out of reach of pets that chew plants.

What to do if your dog ate conophytum minutum

  1. Remove any plant material from your dog's mouth and move conophytum minutum out of reach.
  2. Note how much was eaten and when, and watch for drooling, vomiting, or lethargy.
  3. Do not induce vomiting unless a vet or poison-control specialist instructs you to.
  4. Call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435 and follow their advice.
  5. Bring a leaf or photo of conophytum minutum to the appointment so it can be treated correctly.
