Is Hoya caudata (Sumatra) toxic to dogs?

No — hoya caudata (sumatra) 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. Hoya caudata is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but the Hoya genus is clean: the ASPCA lists Wax Plant (Hoya carnosa) and Sweetheart Hoya (Hoya kerrii) as non-toxic to cats and dogs, with no Hoya listed as toxic. It is therefore considered pet-safe; eating any plant can still cause mild stomach upset, so verify with your vet if concerned.
