My dog ate a mushroom from the yard. I don't know what kind it was. What should I do?

Answer

If your dog ate an unknown mushroom, it's safer to assume it could be toxic. Many wild mushrooms are poisonous and can cause severe symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, tremors, seizures, liver failure, or even death. Do not wait for symptoms to appear. The sooner treatment is started, the better the prognosis. This is an emergency - please take your pet to your nearest emergency veterinary clinic immediately, and if possible, bring a sample of the mushroom with you.
