Ok, I have a stupid question.

They list Yucca as a poisionous plant.  Then why is this "yucca schidigera extract" a common ingredient in dog foods (Canidae, Chicken Soup, Merrick, Eagle Pack, TOTW, etc.)?  Is this something completely different and not related to the plant?  Just wondered.

Thanks for sharing.  There were some on there I actually have at my house and didn't know they were harmful.  Luckily Precious doesn't bother plants.

Jade plants aren't on there...so I take it they aren't poisonous to dogs?
