Though a pretty and popular flower, the Daffodil is highly toxic and dangerous to our pooches. All parts of the plant are dangerous, especially the bulb - with digestion sometimes resulting in death.
Daffodil's contain lycorine, which is the poisonous compound for our dogs. Crystals are found in the outer if the bulb and this is what can cause severe tissue irritation. Once swallowed, it can cause severe vomiting, diarrhoea & possibly respiratory issues. If unnoticed, the result can be severe. If your dog shows any signs that concern you, contact your vet immediately.
