Is Kohleria 'Hannah Roberts' toxic to dogs?

Mildly. The ASPCA lists kohleria 'hannah roberts' as mildly toxic to dogs — a chewing dog typically gets mouth irritation, drooling, and vomiting rather than a medical emergency, but it is still best kept out of reach. Kohleria is not individually listed on the ASPCA toxic/non-toxic plant database. While it shares the Gesneriaceae family with the ASPCA-listed non-toxic African violet and goldfish plant, the genus itself is unverified, so treat it with caution and verify with a vet before regarding it as pet-safe.

Stay calm. Remove any plant from your dog's mouth and take the plant away. Note how much was eaten and when, and do not induce vomiting unless told to. Call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435 and follow their advice; a leaf or photo helps the vet treat it correctly.
