My dog chewed a castor bean I lost on the rug several months ago. After he chewed it up and found out it wasn't tasty he left it for me to find. I think most toxic seed has such a bad taste that it isn't ingested easily.

Needless to say, he is still as mischievous as ever. He likes to play in the mud too.

Castor oil is derived from the beans which is used in many different applications (including a laxative and helping women start labor).
