Oh walks I could watch that dog all day!! Such a keener!!
There have been several dog poisonings around Saskatoon, and it turns out that it's probably from wild mushrooms.
Never thought of that type of possibility - lots of information here on how and why

Another reminder we have to live and love as greatly as we can today, because tomorrow is never guaranteed.
At approximately 11:15pm last night myself and Lauren Hashian Official had to make the painful decision to end Brutus' suffering by taking him off of life support and sending his soul to pup heaven. I held his lil' paw as he was finally at peace.
As all puppies and dogs do, he ate a mushroom while playing outside with his brother Hobbs. This mushroom happened to have a lethal toxicity and within hours it was rapidly destroying his liver and immune system to the point of no return.
I encourage all of you out there to be mindful of mushrooms in your yards, parks or anywhere outside your dogs play. What looks innocent, can be deadly to your lil' family members.
Thank you Dr. Deckelbaum and Dr. West and the incredibly caring nurses and staff at The Animal Medical Center At Cooper City.
We'll always love you Brutus.. and you'll always be my lil' main man and rough housing Brute.

AWWW. Even tough guys cry.
The dog who died was one of the two The Rock rescued from drowning a few weeks ago.
I noticed massive mushrooms growing in the trees in my backyard and have been picking them and tossing them in the dumpster. And I have been picking puffballs out of my front yard as well. While I am not sure if any of these are toxic, I'm not taking any chances. Does anyone know if Fairyring mushrooms are toxic?
Wolfwoman, I found this.....not sure if it looks like typical fairyring mushrooms here...
http://okeechobee.ifas.ufl.edu/images/Wild.M1.jpgThis parasol or Fairy Ring mushroom (Chlorophyllum molybdites) was found growing in Stuart. It shows the reddish-tan scales on the cap. It is poisonous.
Now, this article states that fairyring mushrooms are not poisonous..

But of course, erring on the side of caution is still the best policy....hth..
How great for doggies!!
