Is Thyme-Leaved Edraianthus toxic to dogs?

Edraianthus serpyllifolius

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists thyme-leaved edraianthus 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. Edraianthus serpyllifolius is not individually assessed by the ASPCA. The family Campanulaceae includes genera of variable toxicity. In the absence of a confirmed non-toxic listing, classify as mildly-toxic and keep away from pets.
