Is Corsican Heron's Bill toxic to dogs?

Erodium corsicum

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists corsican heron's bill 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. Erodium corsicum is not listed on the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant database. The closely related Erodium cicutarium is widely regarded as non-toxic to pets, but because specific ASPCA confirmation for ornamental Erodium species is absent, a mildly-toxic precautionary classification is used. No known severe toxic principles; keep away from pets as a precaution.
