Is basil toxic to dogs?
Safe. The ASPCA lists basil as non-toxic to dogs, though eating any plant can cause mild stomach upset.
If your dog ate a lot
- Check the plant's name to be sure it is basil.
- Watch for mild vomiting or stomach upset, which any plant can cause.
- Call your vet if vomiting continues or your dog seems unwell.
