Took my puppy for a walk today and afterwards he was acting very strangely. Rushed him to the vet and after tests discover that he had ingested marijuana on his walkies. He's going to be fine thankfully so enjoy this picture of a stoned pupper!

‘Sir your pupper... is very high’

Paranoia has set in. He's worried about the rising tensions between NK and US

So, um, where were you walking him? Asking for a friend.

That's one paranoid looking pup!

If once heard that dogs and cats can't digest Weed by themselves, it that true?
VLadyc89
Another proof that MJ is harmless. Your doggod knows... legalize in the east coast!

But... Where you live that your pupper can find some ganja on the ground?

Poor pupster!

So you're saying there was like, a random bag of weed your dog got to? I'm perplexed. So many questions
holyguacamonica
Dies he normally eat cigarette butts and stuff like that?
Joeh
We don't have any weed in the house though, so he must have got it outside.
Joeh
Not really. He's a puppy so he'll pick stuff up but he usually drops it. I didn't notice him get anything, but he must have.

If that pup didn’t look so honestly concerned, I’d think this is funny as hell!
TheGalacticLeprechaunwithtinynipples
He's at the vet, he fears they came back to finish the job and cut his dick of, too

This made me laugh out loud at work. Thank you

Same thing happened to my dog. House guest smoked while I was at work and forgot to put the bag away.

Unless dogs are somehow different, eating raw marijuana won't do anything to you. The THC has to be extracted into some kind of fat.
Joeh
I'm assuming it was a joint or something. But honestly I have no idea.
Melchius
It's not the extracting that makes it an active ingredient. It's either heat or a chemical process called decarboxylation.
nerdyvet
Marijuana prepared for smoking can cause poisoning in dogs. This has been documented. That said, yes, edibles are MORE dangerous.
Inarticulated
Where do you live where you can just get high of what's outside on the ground? <_<

How did the dog find some to eat? it's not like people usually just leave joints or dime bags laying on the sidewalk
thickoozymud
.
IUpvoteLOTRMemes
Ummm... ive found a few... And it also grows wild...
Renza0
There is a plant that's similar or maybe the same that grows in the wild, but I believe it cant produce THC without a lot of specific care.
4amsnacks
How did the vet determine that it was marijuana?
MrOdcon
Dogs get THC poisoning, and they have multiple symptoms that make the diagnosis, and I think they do a blood test as well.
FluentPenguin
The dog kept asking for Doritos and to watch Rick And Morty on repeat
Joeh
Urine or blood test I think. He suspected nicotine or marijuana based on behaviour asked us to leave him. We got a call a few hours later.
CiderChugginBitch
Thankfully he'll be just fine. There's a few mixed reports out there but it's not deadly to dogs. He'll sleep well tonight for sure.
ctotheg2
Your vet and dog got stoned together more.
Heidasaurus
What was he acting like before you look him to the vet? Also, what did they do to treat him?
AuntieNelle
The ones I've seen act dopey when left alone, but spaz out in a panic when you arouse them. They also dribble urine.
mge21
This happened to my dog as well, vet said it was either anti-freeze or marijuana.. and if it was anti-freeze it would be non-stop barfing.
FiveToesRight
Fun Fact: barfing is a common term for feeding your dog raw meat (at least here in Germany)
totallynotaghost
No such tests exist to detect THC, he ate your stash mate, you don't have to try and lie

totallynotaghost
i stand corrected sir, i apologize
AuntieNelle
Human urine tests sometimes work on dogs. http://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/uncategorized/pet-marijuana-intoxication-rise/
AuntieNelle
A positive means it's positive, but dogs metabolize it differently, and a negative doesn't necessarily mean it's negative.
totallynotaghost
'Sometimes', that's the key word here, it's not a guarantee
AuntieNelle
I said sometimes. YOU said "no such test exists." Stop trying to look like the reasonable person in this discussion.
KingBeardy
"Ingested marijuana on his walkies"... I call bullshit, he ate your brownies.
ThaiMaiShu
The whole chocolate thing I would think would be the bigger issue if that was the case
melveys
Not all dogs react badly to chocolate. All the dogs I had ingested at least a small amount of chocolate. None had a reaction. The vet 1/2
armithy
It is the TYPE of chocolate that is the issue. Dark chocolate is the most dangerous. Most chocolate products aren't technically chocolate.
ImNakedUnderneathMyClothes
Same with my old dog, once ate a whole box of chocolates, looked like she wanted more
melveys
Said that it's similar to peanut allergy in humans. Those that have it, react very badly.2:2
TheShadowsLengthen
Not exactly that. It's about the metabolization rate of theobromine that is a lot lower for animals than for humans. 1/2
TheShadowsLengthen
...humans would need to ingest pounds and pounds of very dark chocolate to have any effects. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theobromine
nerdyvet
That is not true, but it could be that they used a poor analogy. Luckily, Chocolate is "dose-based". Although knowing the dose ingested...
Joeh
Haha. I’m all for weed but we don’t have any in the house which is why it was such a shock. If it was mine I’d admit it.
pinatafarmer
Man's best friend, pssh, he didn't even share
whitter86
My cousins dog did that and had a seizure
anon311919
I agree that it's probably the chocolate but no guarantees. But my friends dog ate half an ounce and he wasn't cool, but no serious issues
nerdyvet
Every body is different, even for animals. Chocolate and Marijuana can both cause seizures.
CthulhuDeepOne
Had a seizure from eating weed? I call bullshit. That dog must have hit the hard stuff.
ticktockbent
Dogs react differently to the things we eat man. Some stuff we eat is toxic, other stuff will just fuck em up
whitter86
Call bullshit all you want that's what happened.
nerdyvet
Marijuana toxicity can cause seizures in dogs. ~Veterinarian
TheShadowsLengthen
Humans are incredibly tolerant to most drugs, compared to animals. The level of toxicity for marijuana is a lot lower than for human, 1/2
TheShadowsLengthen
*the toxicity threshold for marijuana ; is what I meant.
TheShadowsLengthen
...even when accounting for size difference. Alcohol is another example. In general, don't give recreational drugs to animals. 2/2
Engelous
Thtd probably bcuz of the chocolate tbh
ShelbyTheDESTROYER
Marijuana is highly toxic to dogs and cats even without the chocolate. They don't require as much to get high too so it's often too much!
whitter86
no it wasn't in brownies, it was straight up pot. His roommate had it under his bed or something and the dog got into it.
Engelous
Although im. Not a vet or dog so idk, my sister is though. A vet tht is. I might just b a dog, like i said idk
ImaLumberjackAndImAlrightAlrightAlright
Sounds like so.thing a dog would say *eyes you skeptically

Fucking stop skipping letters, and stop only using one in places that should have more. You make me sick, SICK.
