I try to pick other plants to grow so I have less the chance of my dogs getting into any of the poisonous plants or if the poison plants are outside, at least I do not have them in MY DOG'S fenced in backyard.
If you suspect that your dog was poisoned by any of these plants, call the National Animal Poison Control Center at 1(800)548-2423 and get to your vet immediately.
