Da main fing is NEVA EAT A MUSHROOM not even ones yoo hoomans buy from da supermarkets or grocery stores. An if yoor garden has mushrooms dat come up evfurry now an agen get yoor hooman to pull dem out, dere's not much dey can do to stop dem growin cuz dere's 10 times more ov da mushrooms underground dan ones ontop, an dey spread hundreds of yards under ground before pokin one or two mushrooms up to da surface. So best juz to pull each mushroom up as it shows itself. Not all dogs will eat mushrooms tho, but if yoo is one dat snuffles an eats all sorts of fings yoo find out on yoo walks or in da garden, den yoo is da one dats at risk of mushroom poisonin. Fankfully my furbro Mojo dusn't eat anyfing except cat poo and fox poo and stuff like dat, mmm makes me dribble juz finkin bowt wabbit waisins....

Muvver dunt fink dey poisonous ones but she not a mushroom expurt, an I dunt suppose yoor hoopawrents iz expurts either, so best pick dem all and frow dem away in da rubbish bin. So here's sum advice regardin mushrooms yoo'd find in yoor garden Lawn Mushrooms

Mushrooms are fruiting bodies produced by many types of fungi when conditions are right for spores to germinate, such as when the weather is very rainy. Unfortunately, so many kinds of mushrooms appear in lawns that it's often difficult to distinguish poison mushrooms from safe ones without the practiced eye of an expert. For this reason alone, watch your dog carefully when mushrooms are present on the lawn to ensure that the canine doesn't ingest them.

Symptoms of Poisoning

Symptoms of mushroom poisoning can vary in severity, depending on how much and what type of mushroom was consumed. Vomiting, diarrhea and milder symptoms of gastrointestinal upset may occur with only a minor exposure. More severe symptoms, including excessive salivation, agitation, hallucination or even death from liver failure can result if highly toxic mushrooms grow in your yard. Early signs of liver damage in dogs often appears as yellowing of the gums.

Poisoning Care

If you suspect mushroom poisoning in your dog, immediately call a veterinarian. Before you rush to the veterinarian's office, though, collect a sample of the mushroom eaten by your dog. A dog may be convinced to drink water or milk mixed with 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide per 15 pounds of body weight, which will induce vomiting. If any of the mushroom is regurgitated, collect it as well; it may help the veterinarian determine how much of the poisonous mushroom was consumed.

It's difficult to prevent mushrooms from appearing in a lawn that contains high amounts of organic matter, but a few simple modifications may defeat them over time. Applying 5 pounds of 21-0-0 ammonium sulfate per 1,000 square feet of lawn speeds decomposition of organic debris. Regularly dethatching and aerating the soil also can modify conditions that help fungi thrive. If your lawn mushrooms persist, you could rake or remove the mushrooms as they appear, before you let your pet on the lawn.
