Help!!!!!

Were they in a vase in the house rather than in the garden? At least if it's only plants in the house she eats it'll be easy to avoid it happening again. I hope she's fine this morning.
 
@JudyN they were in a vase, but I also have some in the garden but I will plant them innthe front garden. Should I stop buying plants that are toxic and buy some nice house plants that are safe for dogs?

Yes, definitely! Though I'd be wary of houseplants too - though many are safe for dogs, they could encourage her habit of eating indoor plants and then she'd be more likely to come to harm if you unintentionally bought one that could harm her, or if someone brought a plant or flowers round as a gift. Of course, you could put them out of reach.

okay I will keep them all out of reach and olive will have to learn thanks :)
 
Poor Olive , you’re really going through it , she obviously has a taste for the unusual ! Quite a few houseplants are poisonous , think Diffenbachia is one of them. My plants always die on me, I’m hopeless looking after them ;) I’d stick to silk flowers , I’m sure she wouldn’t get a taste for those...but then again it’s Olive we’re talking about :D:D:D bless her :rolleyes:
 
Time for a garden clear out before the good weather gets here (if ever)!
 
@Mayblossom I will have a look at some silk flowers and I am going to the vets in a bit and I will give you a full update on how she is and if she is allowed home... @arealhuman I am going to do some gardening now in the rain so she can't eat anymore!
 
Update: Olive is at home much better in bed feeling sorry for her self. :( However with all the stress is pushed onto me being stressed over Olive :(
