But when you share your garden with your pets there are other areas to consider, one in particular which many pet owners are unaware of is the toxicity levels of certain plants.
One example would be the yew tree, both leaves and bark are very poisonous, and your dog would require immediate veterinary attention if they chew or swallow either.
