We just discovered these wild berries growing from weeds in some planters of ours. We also have three dogs. After noting some sudden health issues with two of them the past week, we figure it would be best to ask some experts. Are these poisonous? Poisonous to dogs? Any input is appreciated! We're gonna be tearing them out either way.

I’m not an expert, but that looks like belladonna. Extremely poisonous.
Its a nightshade. Likely black nightshade, which is not deadly, but it could be purple/deadly nightshade. I need a flower to tell for sure.
Don’t F with nightshades. Black nightshade *may* be edible if fully ripe and you still don’t want to eat a ton. But even so, there’s nothing about the flavor that says “gotta have it”. There’s a ton of better fruits out there leave that one.
Holy hell. Thanks for the responses guys! I had no idea they were NIGHTSHADE. We got rid of all of em right away!
