Is Dyckia marnier-lapostollei toxic to dogs?

No — dyckia marnier-lapostollei is listed by the ASPCA as non-toxic to dogs. It is a sensible choice for a home with a dog; a curious nibble will not poison them, though no plant is meant to be eaten. This is a terrestrial bromeliad (Bromeliaceae). Dyckia is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but ASPCA-listed bromeliads such as the Blushing Bromeliad (Neoregelia) and Pineapple (Ananas comosus) are non-toxic to cats and dogs and the family has no recognised toxic principle. The real risk is mechanical injury from the stout marginal spines, so keep it away from pets and children.
