How Fall Plants Can Be Hazardous For Pets In Montana
Ah, fall in Montana. Snow is imminent in the higher elevations (Beartooth Pass is closing at noon on October 3 for expected winter weather), the leaves are beautiful, and everyone’s decorating their porches with pumpkins, straw bales, and those cute Halloween inflatables.
There's a lot to love about this time of year, but according to gardening experts at Grow Eat and Repeat, if you have cats, dogs (or both), several popular fall plants can be quite dangerous to pets.

HOWEVER! Carved up porch pumpkins can get moldy quickly. And moldy pumpkins can contain tremorgenic mycotoxins. These myotoxins can cause your pet to twitch, seize, or experience more severe symptoms.
Acorns are great for squirrels, but bad for dogs. Acorns (and oak leaves) are packed with tannins, which can cause everything from an upset stomach to organ failure. Experts also say acorns can become choking hazards for dogs.
