  2. I like your topic. I think we have to know about these things and we should care more about the health of our pets. according to the ASPCA, blue daze (Evolvulus glomeratus) is not considered toxic to dogs. Nonetheless, it is still important to keep an eye on your pet and contact a veterinarian if you notice any unusual symptoms after they have consumed any plant material
