    Morning All! 🙂
    So much talk of Daffodils by those in warmer climates, I thought I’d pass this info on:

    Are daffodils poisonous to dogs?
    YES. Daffodils contain the alkaloid lycorine which is a emetic. This means it causes sickness and/or diarrhoea, and stomach cramps. As if that’s not bad enough, it can also cause breathing difficulties, cardiac arrhythmia, and in serious cases death. They also contain calcium oxalate which can cause kidney failure in severe cases.

    What to watch out for if your dog eats a daffodil
    If you suspect your dog has eaten a daffodil, be on the look out for sickness, diarrhoea, and excessive saliva, or drooling. Other signs include panting, whining, and trouble swallowing.

    What to do if your dog eats daffodils
    If your dog eats daffodils consult your vet immediately. If possible take the plant with you as this will give your vet a better idea of the treatment necessary.

    Which part of the daffodil is poisonous for dogs?
    The whole plant is poisonous to dogs. The highest concentration of poisons is in the bulb, but the leaves, flowers, roots and even the dust from dry bulbs can be harmful to dogs.

    What should you do if your dog drinks daffodil flower water?
    Even the water that daffodils have stood in a vase or bucket can contain the harmful compounds that poison dogs. If you suspect your dog of drinking this contaminated water contact your vet at once.
