Is Sander's Vanda toxic to dogs?
Vanda sanderiana
No — sander's vanda 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. The ASPCA lists orchids as non-toxic to cats and dogs (Phalaenopsis orchid is its named non-toxic entry, and no orchid sits on the toxic list). Vanda sanderiana (Euanthe sanderiana) is not individually listed, but as a true orchid it has no calcium oxalates or recognised toxic principle. Ingestion may still cause minor digestive upset, as non-toxic does not mean edible.
