My dog ate a wild mushroom on our walk. Is it toxic? What now?

Question

My 4 year old rottweiler (95lbs )just swallowed a mushroom on our walk, should I really be concerned? Pet's info: Dog | Rottweiler | Male | neutered | 92 lbs

Certain species of mushrooms are toxic to dogs, but without knowing the mushroom Lugosi ate, I can't say for certain if you should be concerned. Check out this website that has pictures of five common mushrooms that are toxic to dogs, and if he ate one of those, take him into an ER vet immediately. Best of luck. http://www.vetstreet.com/our-pet-experts/5-common-mushrooms-that-can-poison-your-pet
