Help! My dog munched on a plant - is it toxic?

My basset hound (which pretty much eats everything anyway and never bother her) over a week ago devoured a plant over at my friend's house. We didn't realize it until days later when she found the almost entirely empty pot! It was a Magenta Dracaena plant. I have no idea what type that is, I'm not a plant person. She was moping around all last week and slowly got back to her self but then yesterday got really mopy again and this morning was acting very weird. Was standing in the corner, almost like she was going to throw up. I am waiting to hear from the vet but does anyone know about this plant and/or if it is toxic for pets? Should I be worried? She is drinking water and eating dry food still. Nothing ever takes her appetite away. Any help would be great!

Striped Dracaena is on this list.
Reply:you did the right thing taking her to the vet i hope she gets better but their has been pet food recalls but i highly dought thats whats making her sick. becouse you cant get the recalled food unless you have some left over go on the internet and see what foods have been recalled but its mostly the canned food. find out whats plants are poisanuis to animals go to the libery or on the inernet. p.s. i hope your dog gets better.
Reply:I would be doubtful that would be making her sick now if she ate the plant over a week ago. Have you checked the recall list for the contaminated pet food? It could be that, but if she is at the vet's office now, she's in the best place she could be and you did the right thing! She will be fine. : )
Reply:it seems that u have taken her to the vet well my only advice is to pray and also u can look the plant up on google or ask ur friend about it
Reply:Well good news is ..the plant was not on the toxic list, but what you have to know is is she pottying well, especially urninating...also beings your dog eats most anything here's a site for Toxic Plants http://www.library.uiuc.edu/vex/toxic/co...


in your case I would seek a VETS advice as well, it's been awhile...when or if you first catch an animal that has eatin poisions or something toxic, you can make them swallow Hydrogen Peroxide bout a 1/4 cup to start till or to make them vomit the poisions right away..got that from a Vet when our dachsund found some old rat D con...that someone had put out ( NOT us ) we never use such things around any kind of animal ...Be Well :)
