Sankari Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I was wondering if anyone happen to know what types of trees are toxic if dogs eat the leaves/flowers on them. I have an aviary of birds and so I dont have to keep getting the branches etc from parks thought I would like to plant some in the backyard now that the yard looks better and full of grass. I want to get something like Bottlebrush, Melileuka, Eucalyptus trees and possibly banksia. Just thought i'd check before going out and buying if anyone knew what was toxic.

GeckoTree Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I think most plants in the cycad family are toxic to dogs, that's not to say you can't have them as they make great looking trees, just that the dog needs to be trained not to touch them. I have 3 sago palms and they are great plants imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sankari Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share Posted December 13, 2010 My dog is not a destructive dog, just when we go on walks she does stop to smell flowers so thought best i get safe ones so i dont have the concern IF she did eat flowers/leaves off a tree that isnt safe.
