Is Pyrenean Lily toxic to dogs?

Yes — pyrenean lily is toxic to dogs according to the ASPCA. Keep it well away from any dog that chews plants; reactions can be significant. All parts of true lilies (Lilium spp.) are highly toxic to cats — ingestion of even small amounts of pollen, petals, or leaves can cause fatal acute kidney failure within 24–72 hours. Dogs may experience gastrointestinal upset but do not develop renal failure. Toxic principle in cats is not fully characterised but is distinct from cardiac glycosides; immediate veterinary attention is required after any cat exposure.

Toxic principle in cats is not fully characterised but is distinct from cardiac glycosides; immediate veterinary attention is required after any cat exposure. Signs usually appear soon after chewing rather than hours later — watch for drooling, pawing at the mouth, vomiting, loss of appetite, or unusual lethargy after your dog has had access to pyrenean lily.

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.

The ASPCA classification Growli uses applies to both cats and dogs: Pyrenean Lily is toxic to cats as well. See the full pyrenean lily pet-safety guide for both species.
