Top Ten Dog Friendly Houseplants

Top Ten Dog Friendly Houseplants

Puppy

Houseplants offer many benefits to our homes, such as purifying air and bringing greenery inside. However, many might not know that some houseplants can be toxic to our best friends. You will want to know before picking up a new houseplant that you might like whether it could be poisonous to your dog. If ingested, some plants can cause anything from digestive issues and vomiting to depression.

You can find extensive lists on the possible effects of certain plants with a simple Google search. Be sure to research any plant before you pick it up so it can be a welcomed addition to your home.

That being said, there are also a number of house plants that are not toxic to dogs.
