Is Rainbow Plant toxic to dogs?

Mildly. The ASPCA lists rainbow plant 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. Byblis liniflora is not listed in the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant database. The plant secretes sticky digestive enzymes from leaf glands; ingestion of plant material could cause mild oral irritation or gastrointestinal upset in cats or dogs. No formal toxicity classification is available — consult a vet if ingestion occurs.

No formal toxicity classification is available — consult a vet if ingestion occurs. 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 rainbow plant.

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: Rainbow Plant is mildly toxic to cats as well. See the full rainbow plant pet-safety guide for both species.
