What's the best lowgrowing shrub that wont kill my dog if she eats it?

I have a chocolate lab that tries to eat everything new in the yard, and I want to landscape in spite of her. Oleanders, elephant ears, azaleas, berry-bearing hollys are all out. What else is there?

What%26#039;s the best lowgrowing shrub that wont kill my dog if she eats it?
Since %26quot;Granny%26quot; is dissing everyone, it%26#039;s interesting that she lists my resource!
