Pups are often curious creatures, and when you add a new plant to your home, it is important to know if they’ll affect your pet’s safety.

House plants can contain a lot of sap that can be poisonous to dogs if ingested, so as part of their new low-maintenance plant campaign, the team at Uswitch has revealed which ones are safe to have around your pets and which should be avoided or kept far out of reach. 

Using data from Dog’s Trust, House Plants Expert, and Gardeners World, it was revealed that plants including Burros Tail, Maidenhair Ferns, Wax Plants, and Spider Plants are all safe and non-toxic for dogs if you are planning on expanding your greenery collection.

However, scrubs that should be avoided or kept out of reach of our fluffy friends to avoid sickness include Dumb Canes, Chinese Evergreens, and Sago Palms.

Here are twenty house plants you might be interested in purchasing to add to your home and how harmful they might be to your pooches.
