Magic mushrooms are one of the most psychoactive, mind altering substances on the planet - a fact which this dog found out the hard way.

The dog, named Roxy, was running around a ranch playing when she came across a patch of wild shrooms in cow pat.

In the video, the canine, whose eyes appear extremely dilated, stumbles several times having appeared to have lost all co-ordination.

The owner of the eight-month-old Border collie said he rushed her to the vet shortly after filming the video to get to the bottom of her odd behaviour.

Vets revealed that the dog had indeed consumed a batch of so-called magic mushrooms and was experiencing the side effects, which can include disorientation, sickness, and a warped sense of time and movement.

Her owner claims the dog appeared to be "enjoying the experience", adding that the vet explained many dogs actually go looking for the intoxicating fungus.

Thankfully, Roxy had no medical problems and was back to playing as normal once the high wore off.

According to Frank , magic mushrooms a slang word for psilocybe semilanceata or ‘liberty cap’ mushrooms and any other mushroom which produces similar ’trippy’ effects, like hallucinations.

Similar to humans, dogs can ingest some forms of mushrooms without falling ill, but owners are advised to be vigilant to ensure the strain is not poisonous.
