Is Cooper's Haworthia toxic to dogs?

Haworthia cooperi

Non-toxic to dogs

No — cooper's haworthia 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 ASPCA lists Haworthia (as "Haworthia species," family Liliaceae) as non-toxic to both cats and dogs, and its separate Zebra Haworthia entry is likewise non-toxic. Haworthia cooperi is not individually named, but it is covered at the genus level (all ASPCA-listed Haworthia are non-toxic, none toxic). As with any plant, large quantities may cause mild, passing stomach upset, so verify with your vet if your pet has nibbled.
