Re: Hunter's Biopsy Report

I have a question about mushrooms.  I just picked up a tidbit about dogs
eating mushrooms in an earlier post, but I must not have been privy to
the earlier communication on this.  Just this past month we have been
having a ton of large brown curvy mushrooms growing in our dog run in
the gravel area.  I've been chopping them down and discarding them as
soon as I see them. Can they be dangerous to our dogs?  What is the best
way to get rid of these pesky things?  We didn't have these in Kansas!!!
