Clathrus Ruber is a type of fungi that shares the same family as the Stinkhorn. It is most commonly known as the ‘Lattices Stinkhorn’ due to its cage-like appearance.
Some report this mushroom as edible. However, there have also been reports throughout history that believe it to be inedible and toxic, causing severe stomach troubles.
It isn’t thought to be poisonous to dogs or other household pets, although those whose dogs have eaten Clathrus Ruber have found them to suffer with an upset stomach shortly after.
Fortunately like humans, dogs don’t appreciate the smell or taste and often avoid them anyway.
If you notice your dog has eaten one, try to induce vomiting within an hour of it being digested. This should minimize any intestinal upset for them.
