HMMMMM, I guess that would certainly do it. Tell him no smoking around the dog's, they can die from inhaling that crap !!!

If he left any lying around she may have nibbled some too. He will have to keep the smoke and the pot away from her. She is way too small to process that stuff like an adult can.

I had a cousin that died several years ago.....shot liver, etc alcoholic and long time drug user, then last 8 years of his life, he smoked pot and blew it in his mother's dogs faces.....he thought that was so funny watching those precious little darlings get high....he ended up killing two of them in a drug induced stupor....

NO SMOKING dope around the babies....

Wow. How scary. This is a good public message post.

We should be careful not to misinform regarding marijuana bc it can be used medicinally with incredible results not seen elsewhere in both humans *and* animals. Many of our war Veterans are now using pot for their PTSD with just amazing changes, and the govt is paying it huge attention behind the scenes...in fact, they're now growing acres upon acres of pot and having it studied carefully. It's also just incredible for young children w/ severe epilepsy - ever hear of the pot named "Charlotte's Web"...? Incredible story.

The pot/THC/chemicals is absorbed by inhaling it in the manner described here - so blowing it in the face of another being would only result in minor inhalations of the stuff. Sure, they could still get "high", but this would not be life threatening. Humans don't overdose (die) from pot, neither do animals.

So while marijuana is quite a safe medication, it is NOT COOL to just give it to a poor animal to entertain yourself. That's horrible, and mean, and immature, and selfish.

My neighbhors dog eat some of his pot and had to be rushed to the emergency vet because he was acting strange. They induce vomiting but he was okay.

I agree that it has been found to be a useful medication in some cases but that is the key here. It is a medication and as such should be kept away from people and animals that it was not prescribed for.

Oh boy! What a scare your baby caused you. SO glad that she is ok now.

:thumbup: Very much agreed. It may be okay for people to use in controlled amounts medicinally. It may not be harmful if smoke is blown in dogs' faces. But, if ingested in large amounts, it could be fatal for dogs. There have been instances where dogs have died from ingesting pot, be it the pot itself or that the dog choked on its own vomit due to the pot resulting in death. It wouldn't matter whether it was a direct or indirect cause, because by then the dog would have gotten sick because of it. And if not properly cared for, they can die. It's very very sickening how some irresponsible/unethical/ignorant people think it's 'funny' to get their dogs high off pot or drunk off alcohol. That's just animal abuse! :(

It would be good practice not to smoke pot around the dogs, so that one might not accidentally leave traces of it behind where the dogs may access it while the people are high and 'not really there'. If there's a chance of people accidentally leaving food on the coffee table and the dogs getting sick from eating it, there's just as much chance of accidentally leaving a bag of pot / joints / remains and the dogs getting to it too! It's really our responsibility to make sure we protect them because they cannot protect themselves...

Yes she must have gotten a contact high. Poor little Madlyn, how scared she must have been. Sweet little baby.

It killed my aunts two little Chihuahuas....per autopsy results from A&M vet school....Those pups were perfectly healthy otherwise....
