Pink Poinsettia

It is a thin white liquid that is in a pink poinsettia leaf. I know that dogs are allergic to these plants and I was wondering if this was the stuff they were allergic. I touched the stuff and I was wondering if I touch her she could give him my Sammy.

Thank you for the help!

The white liquid that you refer to is just the sap of the plant, it is called in latex in the case of poinsettias. The worst can cause a rash, some people are sensitive.

Although the plant is not edible, it is not toxic either. Your dog is safe, do not worry. She would have to consume several large factories in their entirety to even get sick.

Im not down, but its milky substance. And I have a friend that his dog ate one day and let me tell u that he almost died!

can not think of that name, but of course they are "allergic". poinsettias are poisonous. like the guy said, they can kill your pet, so be sure to keep them away from plants!

He is an absolute myth that pointsettias are toxic. I thought they were too toxic until I hear otherwise this past X-mas. The scientists fed large amounts to rats and nothing happened.

Beware of poinsettia sap. Poinsettias are members of the family Euphorbiaceae. Poinsettias and its close relatives have a milky white latex sap that appears quickly when you break a leaf or stem. The sap is an irritant. It can cause a skin rash, burning eyes, or perhaps even a swollen tongue or mouth pieces for people with sensitivities.

It is latex. I do not know if it could harm Sammy, but you'd better wash your hands before touching her. It can irritate your skin, however, if it is not toxic

Heyyyy. as poison. DONT ever touch or ingest.
