Is Dwarf Edraianthus toxic to dogs?

Edraianthus pumilio

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists dwarf edraianthus 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. Edraianthus is not individually listed on the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant database. The family Campanulaceae contains members of varying toxicity; until a definitive ASPCA assessment exists, treat as mildly-toxic and keep away from cats and dogs as a precaution.

What to do if your dog ate dwarf edraianthus

  1. Remove any plant material from your dog's mouth and move dwarf edraianthus out of reach.

  4. Call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435 and follow their advice.
