BRIEF: Is bamboo toxic to dogs?
QUESTION:
My neighbor planted bamboo in his yard and it is starting to shoot up in
my
yard. Last night I noticed my dog eating shoots that are starting to come
on
our side of the fence. He seems okay this morning, but went back out to try
to
eat more. Are these toxic?
ANSWER:
I don't think they should be a problem, but it depends on what species of
plant
you really have. Lots of things get called
bamboo...
