What is this?

Weed in my backyard in Phoenix. It looks like dandelion but never flowers.

It kind of looks like Shepherd's Purse. My animals don't eat it.

I'm in the Phoenix area as well and have it all over. Its a lot of my torts favorite. So much so I allow my front yard to look like crap in order to harvest the weeds for the tortoises in back. Haha

It's not a dandelion...but it might be OK based on what other people are saying in this thread

My tort loves it.

Saw it here (SoCal). Picked it, it gave me a rash. Threw it over the fence. No thank you.
