Hogweed isn't dangerous in the slightest. *Giant hogweed* has compounds in the sap which can cause "phototoxic" burns. Basically it causes your skin to be extremely sensitive to sunlight, such that you can get extremely bad burns.

It's only toxic if you expose yourself to it's sap. You can touch it or push it around (though I wouldn't), just don't break it (or chew it lol).

And I guess don't let your dog chew it!
