Is Radicchio 'Rossa di Treviso' toxic to dogs?

Cichorium intybus var. foliosum 'Rossa di Treviso'

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists radicchio 'rossa di treviso' 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. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. Cichorium intybus is not individually listed in the ASPCA toxic/non-toxic plant database, so a confirmed pet-safe label cannot be assigned. Ingestion of any leafy plant material can cause mild vomiting or gastrointestinal upset in cats and dogs. Treat with caution and verify with a vet before allowing pet access.
