Also note that Lantana can grow pretty rapidly depending on the location and can be a nuisance if it's unwanted. We have some that grows in with our bushes and although its very pretty, I consider it a weed because of how it grows.

That is lantana. ASPCA Website says:

Scientific Name: Lantana camara
Family: Verbenaceae
Toxicity: Toxic to Dogs, Toxic to Cats, Toxic to Horses
Toxic Principles: Pentacyclic triterpenoids
Clinical Signs: Vomiting, diarrhea, labored breathing, weakness. Liver failure - more common in livestock."
Yup, and really popular for people who like to attract butterflies

As above, this is Lantana, which is a decorative shrub originally from tropical Africa and America. In Australia, at least, it's classified as a Weed of National Significance (one of 32), so it's illegal to sell and it generally should be eliminated where possible. I have spent many weeks removing Lantana from my aunt's outback property; it's a real nuisance.
Poisoning from Lantana can be quite serious, particularly if the berries are eaten, and I'd recommend taking your dog to a vet. There's extensive information here.
