Is Titanopsis primosii toxic to dogs?

Titanopsis primosii

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists titanopsis primosii 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. Titanopsis is not individually listed in the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plants database, so its status is unconfirmed; treat with caution and verify with a vet. Aizoaceae mesembs are not generally reported as seriously toxic, but the absence of an ASPCA listing means pet-safety cannot be confirmed.
