Dendrobium Species (Dendrochylum) are toxic to dogs.

If your dog has eaten Dendrobium, follow these steps immediately:

  1. Call your veterinarian or the Pet Poison Helpline (800-213-6680). Provide them with as much information as possible, including the type of Dendrobium ingested and the approximate amount.
  2. Induce vomiting if directed by your veterinarian. Do not induce vomiting if your dog is unconscious or has seizures.
  3. Administer activated charcoal if directed by your veterinarian. This can help absorb the toxin.
  4. Monitor your dog closely for symptoms. Common symptoms of Dendrobium poisoning in dogs include:
    • Vomiting
    • Diarrhea
    • Tremors
    • Seizures
    • Respiratory distress
    • Death
  5. Transport your dog to the veterinarian for immediate treatment. If possible, bring a sample of the Dendrobium plant with you.

Treatment for Dendrobium poisoning may include:

  • Intravenous fluids
  • Anticonvulsants
  • Sedatives
  • Respiratory support
  • Liver and kidney function support

Recovery from Dendrobium poisoning depends on the severity of the ingestion and the promptness of treatment. Some dogs may recover fully, while others may have long-term health problems.

Prevention is the best way to protect your dog from Dendrobium poisoning. Keep Dendrobium plants out of reach of dogs, and be aware of the potential toxicity of this plant.
