My dog got extremely sick one time. She was completely lethargic, couldn't walk, peeing herself, and anytime we would go check on her she acted as if she was going to get beat(We have never hit any of our dogs). We took her to the vet and they kept her overnight and she was better the next day. They had no idea what caused it except that it was signs of being poisoned. For the longest time we thought just that. A few months ago our friends witnessed their dog eat a nug, within hours he was doing the exact same thing. A few weeks ago our friends 1 year old Boxer at close to 2 grams and guess what? Same symptoms. We all put 2 and 2 together and figured out what had happened. It was a scary situation for all of us and cost us all quite a bit of money due to "emergency" overnight observation from a vet. From our experiences, weed is bad for dogs.you DO understand that weed is NOT harmful to people or animals right?
Now I know with humans, pot is not active if you eat strait buds. It has to be cooked into a fat of some kind in order to be ingested. So wouldn't it be the same for dogs? Not saying your wrong, just curious if its different for dogs.My dog got extremely sick one time.

I have heard that about cooking it and or heating it ie...lighter. What you are describing with your dog sounds very very similar to what I was referring to. In the case of mine she would not/could not walk, she curled up into a ball and didn't want to move. We only waited about 45 minutes to an hour before we rushed her to the vet. They put her on an IV and monitored her all night, they said by the morning she was up and active.Now I know with humans, pot is not active if you eat strait buds.

Also, one time I made peanut butter pot crackers (natural peanut butter on crackers, sprinkle a lil bud on em, cook them and your set). I always eat the peanut butter off the crackers, cause the crackers are too dry, and the peanut butter has all the fun stuff in it.
Anyways, I ate the peanut butter and left the crackers on my coffee table. I caught my dogs eating the crackers awhile after (the crackers still had peanut butter oily residue on them). About a half hour after they ate them, they started acting REALLY weird. They could barely walk and they kept falling over. At first it was crackin my shit up. An hour in they were COMATOSE on my couch. They wouldnt move even when I called them, which never happens. Like I said, funny at first but then I started to worry, cause they literally couldn't move. So I googled it. What I could find online said dogs being high can be a terrifying experience for them. It said they lose control of their motor functions and will only be able to lift their heads slightly. This was exactly how they were, for easily 2+ hours.
Idk if eating it vs. smoking it causes different reactions in dogs, but I've been much more careful with them since.
On another note though, I have seen friends dogs that really seemed to enjoy smoking. They would make a clear effort to try to get a hit, so who knows.
