DOGS DIE FROM EATING DEADLY MUSHROOMS.   

There is a bumper crop of poisonous mushrooms in our area as well as all of NY and the North East. These mushrooms are called Death Cap. A client’s dog recently died from eating one of these deadly mushrooms. These mushrooms smell and taste very sweet. Dogs are drawn to their sweet smell and taste. It is recommended that you remove all mushrooms from your yard. Be careful not to crush them as this will spread more spores and you will have more mushrooms growing. Pay attention to what your dog is sniffing when you are not at home.
