    *Lonicera maackii* (Amur honeysuckle). It’s invasive in the US, especially the eastern half, so it should be removed. The fruits are mildly toxic, from what I’ve read.

    Id be worried about my dog eating anything that I couldnt identify. But yes, dont let your dogs eat it. Id physically remove it

    Honeysuckle. I don’t know about real risk to the dog (toxic can be anywhere from puking once to dying, so IDK where it is on that spectrum) but they’re super invasive, so get rid of it just for that.

    Honeysuckle / lonerica. Mildly toxic (likely not fatal but worth a vet call? I don’t have dogs.)

    That’s Amur honeysuckle, it’s invasive and not good to eat. It’s not going to kill your dog, but they’ll get a tummy ache

  7. Bruh I see reddish berries and think everything is pokeweed I’ve yet to be correct tho lol

    My puppy has been eating them too. I don’t think they’re toxic enough to kill dogs, but they cause vomiting and diarrhea

    Assumming they’re honeysuckle, I’ve removed most of it. It’s grown within my neighbor’s old and worn fence and I didnt want to mess with it too much. Any not removed, I cut at the base. My neighbor plans on getting a new fence eventually too and we’ll probably take care of the rest of it then.

    Invasive honeysuckle. Most dogs in my experience aren’t the slightest bit interested in them.
