Is Conophytum Uviforme toxic to dogs?

Conophytum uviforme

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists conophytum uviforme 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 status is unconfirmed; treat with caution and verify with a vet before assuming it is safe. Although the related Aizoaceae genus Lithops is ASPCA non-toxic, an unlisted genus cannot be asserted as pet-safe, so we flag it as uncertain.

What to do if your dog ate conophytum uviforme

  1. Remove any plant material from your dog's mouth and move conophytum uviforme 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 uviforme to the appointment so it can be treated correctly.

General guidance, not veterinary advice. If you think your dog has eaten conophytum uviforme, contact your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435 — do not wait for symptoms to worsen.
