Can my dog get sick from licking paws after walking on yard moss?

Question

We have a great deal of moss growing in our yard that my dog walks on. If she licks her paws, will it make her sick?

Debi Matlack · Accepted Answer

There shouldn't be a problem with this, only if something is sprayed on the moss should it be a problem. Most ground moss, Irish moss, and that like are non toxic to dogs. The ASPCA has an extensive list of toxic and non-toxic plants on their website.
