Pet-safe Wood Finish

Hi,
I am probably being over cautious but looking for some advice regarding a wood finish. (would this be better in DIY board?)
I am going to build dog cages into the back of a van using 18mm ply wood for the main carcas and am wondering what the best finish would be to seal the wood - if indeed it will need sealed at all? do they seal ply-lining in the back of vans?
Obviously looking for something that is not going to be harmful to the dogs should they have a nibble at it. I was thinking that almost all finishes would be safe once properly dried/cured but thought i'd best check... just in case!
cheers.

Cuprinol garden shades are animal friendly.
You could also try Good for wood easy to use wax which leaves a transparent finish so enhances the look of the natural wood.0 -
Traditional beeswax, Danish or pure tung oil (the stuff meant for wooden worktops or chopping boards)?Declutterbug-in-progress.⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️0
