Pothos contains calcium oxalate crystals that cause painful oral irritation.
This trailing vine is one of the most common houseplants and dogs are often attracted to its dangling leaves.
Pothos (Epipremnum aureum) contains raphides — bundles of insoluble calcium oxalate needles — that physically pierce mouth and throat tissues when chewed. Pain and swelling typically appear within minutes.

Symptoms are usually self-limiting with rinsing and time. Persistent vomiting or breathing difficulty warrants vet care.
Contacte de inmediato con su veterinario o con una línea de emergencia de intoxicaciones para animales. No provoque el vómito a menos que se lo indique un veterinario.
