Is Hoya Memoria (Gracilis) toxic to dogs?

Hoya gracilis (syn. Hoya memoria)

Non-toxic to dogs

No — hoya memoria (gracilis) 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 gracilis (memoria) is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but the ASPCA lists genus members "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; verify with your vet if concerned. The milky latex sap can irritate sensitive skin and may cause mild, temporary stomach upset if chewed.
