Risks
- All parts of the red buckeye tree produce toxic saponins including aescin, which can cause hypersalivation, vomiting, and diarrhea in dogs when ingested.
- Excessive consumption of any part of the plant can lead dogs to exhibit agitation, depression, and seizures.
- Clinical signs of red buckeye tree poisoning in dogs typically start around 6-8 hours after eating the plant.
