We had a rainstorm last night, and a bird’s nest fell out of a tree in my yard. My dog ate one of the eggs. I think dogs can have chicken eggs, but I’m unsure about raw eggs from unknown bird species. How can I tell if my dog is having a bad reaction? So far, she seems fine. In fact, she seems rather happy with herself for finding such a treasure. Are bird eggs like this safe for dogs to eat, and what should I do if she starts to get sick?

Thank you @Sally Jones. Thankfully, she was ok; she just had some smelly gas for a while. However, today, I noticed some white mushrooms growing in the yard, and I am hoping she did not eat any of those. Who knew the backyard could be so scary for my dog?

Hey thanksforallthefish, as a site moderator, I get notified about posts, and yours caught my eye b/c I’m dealing with the same wild mushroom questions. I live in western Virginia, and we’ve been getting a ton of rain for the last 2 weeks (not anything like western N.C.). But I’ve had several different types of mushrooms pop up in my yard from all the rain. Fortunately, my dog doesn’t seem to care about them, but I’ve still looked them up on apps in case he gets the inkling to munch on one. Many wild mushrooms can be poisonous, so keep your pup away from all to be safe. If you think your dog already consumed some, watch them carefully for any health signs that are abnormal. And call your vet asap if you notice anything off.

@Sally Jones Thanks for the tips. I always assume mushrooms are bad for dogs. It’s so hard to be sure I’ve gotten all of them when they pop up overnight. I will definitely call the vet if I think she ate any.
