Is Easter Egg Radish toxic to dogs?

Raphanus sativus 'Easter Egg'

Non-toxic to dogs

No — easter egg radish 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 classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. The cultivated radish (Raphanus sativus) root is widely recognised as safe for dogs and cats in moderation. The ASPCA lists Wild Radish (Raphanus raphanistrum) as toxic to horses only via isothiocyanates causing gastrointestinal irritation, so keep radish plants away from horses; dogs and cats are not listed as affected, but feed the roots, not the foliage, in small amounts.
