The question was about plants that are poisonous to dogs. And it’s a valid question. Some dogs have no interest in eating vegetation, while others view anything in the yard as their personal buffet. The size of the dog also determines how susceptible they are to toxic plants. While a few leafs or a couple of seeds from a toxic plant might not pose a problem for an 80 pound dog, it might make a 40 pound dog sick and it might kill a 5 pound dog.
