Hi Cammomile, your puppy should be ok after ingesting a Christmas cactus as they aren't toxic to dogs. She could get a bit of indigestion but otherwise alright!

I agree, but consider it a 'wake up call'. My cat used to sample this and that in the garden until one day he chomped on some English Yew. He was gone that night.

Here is list of poisons plants to dogs published by The Kennel Club. Hope this is helpful.

House and garden plants poisonous to dogs

Thank you both. I also know rhododendron and azaleas are poisonous but she eats the flowers and has a go at the leaves and seems perfectly ok with those. We know if all goes quiet in the garden, she's up to something!

The swallowing of pebbles is very alarming & needs to be stopped. It could develop into a habit & result in her having major surgery to remove said stones. Some dogs do do this & swallow big pebbles when on a beach. She is only a puppy though & will hopefully grow out of all this sampling of new things. She is learning what is good to eat & what is not.

Paul sending sympathy re your cat. Was this the cat you acquired what seems like recently but is probably longer...

Thanks Sue, the cat I have now, that I adopted from the shelter is a replacement for the one that died from eating the poisonous English Yew. It's impossible to watch them 24/7 & they love to explore their surroundings.
