Is Pansy Orchid toxic to dogs?

Miltoniopsis vexillaria

Non-toxic to dogs

No — pansy orchid 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. Miltoniopsis is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but the ASPCA lists Phalaenopsis and Jewel orchids as non-toxic to cats and dogs, and cultivated epiphytic orchids of this type follow that non-toxic pattern. Considered pet-safe; rinse off any pesticide or fertiliser residue, as that, not the plant, is the realistic hazard, and chewing may still cause mild stomach upset.
