I allways smoke outside ! |
I also just saw it. I don't smoke but having a dog with CT, I definitely think it affects pets. Scooter just took his last antibiotic and another med today because he had a really bad episode last week. He would wake up during the night gasping for breath. I think it's getting worse the older he gets. My Mother was a smoker and like the other poster, I tried it as a teen but it made me so dizzy. I learned to inhale because my friends did it. I would sit there like nothing was wrong but the room was moving. LOL. No, it wasn't for me and I didn't do ir for long. |
I haven't read past your second post. But that one made me have to respond. First, don't take it personally if you don't get a lot of replies! YT has grown leaps and bounds since I joined in March of '06 and it is isn;'t uncommon to not log on for two days and see there have been 2000 new posts!!! :eek::eek: We all have posts that get overlooked, or driven into the black hole of the second page, lol. I am not a smoker any more. Quit in 1990 after 18 years of smoking, before I ever adopted my first furry boy. But I will say, that if I did smoke, just like children, I would never smoke in my home with them in it. I would go outside. No one is allowed to smoke in my home, ever. |

I tried to get a script for Chantix because it worked really well for my best friend's husband. My doctor wouldn't prescribe it for me. He wants me to quit cold turkey which I have never been able to do. If I was a junkie (heroin) he would probably help me get on methadone (sp?) but no help from him with quitting smoking. He wanted to give me the patch, I don't know why. I can't use it anyway because I have tried it before and it causes me to have blazing color nightmares. :eek: No thanks. ;) During these nightmares I feel feel like I am awake and it is all very vivid and totally...well...nightmarish. :D |

As a cardiac nurse who sees the effects of nicotine on the heart every day that I work, IMO, smoking is bad first, second or any other hand. My animals are my babies and I wouldn't smoke around them either. |
I don't smoke, buy my dad does. He never smokes around his dog (a large lab) nor does he smoke around us. I would think the smoking would have an effect on the dog's quality of life myself. This is something I'd be interested in asking my vet about, just for curiousity sake! |
My husband smokes a lot and at home when we were living in a 500 sq ft condo and from that, I have nose problems. I knew it was from the smoke because each time he smokes, the reaction starts, I start to tear up, my nose runs and I started sneezing repeatedly. Although he doesn't smoke around me anymore and my reactions aren't that bad, the symptoms still comes back once in a while or when he smokes with me being in the car. After that, he doesn't smoke around me or Pao anymore. |
Smoker :rolleyes: But outside I go.... |
i do not smoke, but my husband smokes cigars, but outside only . i would never allow smoking around my little sammy. my daughter used to smoke and the after a few years of trying everything on the market, patches, pills, gum & everything else, the only way she quit, ( COLD TURKEY ) was finding out she was pregnant ! now it is over 2 years and she did not go back, i am so happy |
I smoked for 20+ years and quit 6months ago:D I have never smoked in my house around my furbabies or my skin babies. My husband still smokes but we have always either smoked outside or smoked in the garage. I truly believe that 2nd hand smoke is harmful to all living things. That being said, I also believe that different people or animals are more suseptible (sp?) to getting sick from it just from specific genes they may or may not carry. So just because one dog can be around a smoker and live to 17yrs doesn't mean your dog will be so lucky. |
ok well i used to smoke inside with them, but now we are both smoking outside becuase i was paranoid that people can smell the smoke on my clothes so we stopped. smoking inside...but i imagine that it cant be good for them. good luck on quiting if that is what you want to do! |
My folks smoke and they go outside to smoke. |

I live in a very small town and finding a good doctor here is like looking for a needle in a haystack, Too much haystack and too few needles. I could go to another town but an hours drive, at least. :( I know I just need to bite the bullet and do it). |
