🍂 Autumn is here, and mushrooms are popping up everywhere! 🍄 While some may look harmless, many wild mushrooms can be toxic — and even deadly — to dogs if ingested. Curious pups may nibble on them during walks or playtime, which makes awareness essential this season.

Save this post for reference and share it with fellow dog lovers to help keep all pups safe this fall! 🌳🐾

Signs of mushroom poisoning to watch for:

Vomiting
Diarrhea
Drooling or excessive salivation
Weakness or collapse
Abdominal pain
Seizures or tremors

If your dog shows any of these symptoms — or you suspect they’ve eaten a mushroom — contact your veterinarian immediately. Some mushrooms can cause severe liver, kidney, or neurological damage.

Tips to keep your pup safe this season:

Remove any mushrooms you spot in your yard.
Keep your dog on a lead in wooded or grassy areas.
Teach your pup a strong “leave it” command to prevent accidental snacking.
Share this info to raise awareness — it could save a life!
