For humans, rue is a herb having several medicinal properties and benefits for humans. It is a wonderful remedy for muscle pain relief, arthritis, cramps, and headaches. However, you must never feed rue to your dog because it could be toxic to canines.

In large quantities, rue can result in the following symptoms in dogs:

  • Rue is toxic and if ingested in large doses by a small dog, could result in nausea, vomiting, stomach cramps, lethargy, and confusion.
  • The herb and its essential oil is known to cause severe skin irritation in pets.
  • Rue is even a remedy to repel stray dogs and feral cats from entering your yard. Most dogs dislike the strong bitter taste of rue and will steer clear of it. But young pups are curious and eat everything. So, it is important to be careful and keep the herb or its oil safely locked away out of the pet’s reach.

If you suspect your pup has ingested rue, try to assess how much it may have eaten. Try to wash its mouth and call the vet right away.

To ensure your pet will live a long and healthy life, it is always a good idea to invest in pet health insurance. Preparing for the unexpected guarantees money is never an issue in keeping you pup healthy.
