Is Turbinicarpus pseudomacrochele toxic to dogs?

No — turbinicarpus pseudomacrochele 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. The ASPCA classifies cacti (Cactaceae) as non-toxic to cats and dogs, and Turbinicarpus carries no toxic principle. Note the spines are a physical injury hazard, not a poison, so still keep it out of reach of curious pets.
