Offer only plain cooked store-bought mushrooms in small amounts. Keep pets away from all wild and yard mushrooms, which can be toxic and hard to identify safely.
Store-bought culinary mushrooms include button, cremini, portobello, and shiitake. They provide small amounts of fiber and minerals. Sold fresh in cartons, sliced, or dried.
Many recipes sauté mushrooms in butter, oil, or wine. Canned mushrooms often include brine or salt. Mushrooms absorb oil and sauces easily.
Wild mushrooms in yards, houseplant soil, and compost can be toxic. Remove them promptly from pet areas.
