Well, animals usually do not eat poisonous plants. My cockatiels (their brain is not too big and many many generations were born in captivity) used to eat my orchids, suculents, other plants, but never got even close to the possibly dangerous ones like euphorbia
Have any angry neighbours?... Sorry, maybe I am too suspicious but this sounds like doing it on purpose.

When Ecaterina was a puppy, she was eating these little yellow flowers (in my yard) which stopped her blood from clotting, but the vet noticed it and we stopped it before it became a big problem. Two weeks later, my friend at the nearby motorcycle shop asked me how my dog was, because he saw a car hit her..... he caught her and put her back inside my yard because she was walking. I noticed her nose had some blood coming out. I thought she fell from my carport.

The vet actually said it was 'Ruta', a rather abundant plant here.... I am with you though, I don't think she escaped and ate a stomach full of "Ruta"...

Rue? http://www.botanical.com/botanical/m...rue---20-l.jpg This one?
Really strange... How much could she eat? These plants are very common in Lithuania, grown near houses, even the places where children play, it is used as a herb - in old times - for making abortions , it also cures the nerve system And can make ones skin more sensitive to sun. It can not poison dogs.

Surprise, surprise ... good knowledge for a "miescionka", Vaiva
but "skin more sensitive for sun" is an other herb

Change your vet, Jason No dog would eat "Ruta". It smells strangely and tastes bitter.

Learning Lithuanian?
Angelika, the juice of the leaves togeher with the sun makes real injurues. We tried it at the kindergarden more than twenty years ago

I beg your pardon, Vaiva
(thought you meant perhaps common St.-John´s-wort).
