Is Hairy Peperomia toxic to dogs?

No — hairy peperomia 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. The ASPCA lists multiple Peperomia species (including P. obtusifolia, P. caperata, P. argyreia, and P. prostrata) as non-toxic to cats and dogs, with no toxic principle recorded and no toxic member of the genus listed. Peperomia hirsuta is considered pet-safe on this consistent genus-wide pattern. As with any plant, a pet that ingests a large amount may experience mild, transient stomach upset from the plant bulk; discourage chewing and consult your vet if concerned.
