ID This Mushroom my Dog Tried to Eat, MA North of Boston

I suspect she has eaten this mushroom previously with no side-effects so I am not too concerned.

Looks kind of like an agaricus to me. Pretty hard to tell without gill and stipe shots. Ideally a sore print too. I'm no expert either haha.

I hate ruining mushrooms to get spore prints! - but I'll snag one next time I see these pop up.

yeah thats understandable. if only they weren't so damn cryptic haha. Sometimes you can get a good idea of the spores if you can see them on the ground under the mushroom or on the stipe sometimes. depends on how much airflow the caps get wherever they popped up though.
