Coprinus comatus
I didn't knew Coprinopsis variegatus back then, but this is indeed C. variegatus as orbea suggested! I love this mushroom :D
It sure looks like Shaggy Mane, but if you look at the base of the stipe, you'll see a ring which looks more like that of C. atramentarius. C. comatus has a loose ring. Furthermore C. comatus does not have a veil which breaks in amanita-like patches on a smooth surface. I believe it is a Coprinus from the Coprinus or Atramentarii subsection.

That's my puppy(now dog) Sydney. She is my hiking and photography and mushrooming partner, although I can't say she is always helpful
