Is Hoya Linearis toxic to dogs?

Hoya linearis

Non-toxic to dogs

No — hoya linearis 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. Hoya linearis is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but ASPCA lists related Hoya — 'Wax Plant' (Hoya carnosa) and 'Sweetheart Hoya' (Hoya kerrii) — as non-toxic to cats and dogs, and no Hoya appears on its toxic list, so it is regarded as pet-safe. As it is not itself listed, confirm with your vet if concerned; the milky sap may cause mild, temporary stomach upset.
