Is English Walnut 'Tulare' toxic to dogs?

Juglans regia 'Tulare'

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists english walnut 'tulare' 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. The ASPCA does not list English walnut (Juglans regia) among toxic plants, and the ripe sweet kernels are not considered poisonous to cats and dogs. However, the genus produces juglone, and moldy walnuts and hulls can harbour tremorgenic mycotoxins (penitrem A) that cause tremors and seizures in dogs; the high fat content also risks pancreatitis. Keep fallen and moldy nuts away from pets and verify with a vet if ingestion occurs.
