See this is the problem with RIU. Too many douche bags, with a group mentality. In my opinion, if you feed drugs to your dog, youre a douche. simple. If you condone it, youre a douche.
P.s. you spelt turtles wrong.

Were not saying get pets high but you were very harsh with your side of the argument, i am suprised to see so many people doing it and i suppose it is only natural that people seem to be responsible about it.

Old age is definatly a time to allow dogs some weed if they suffer from arthritis glycoma etc etc. You need a stronger argument than that, it dosent hurt them, they enjoy it, both have fun and good interaction time, it soothes the high impact and energy muscles they use all day long and is good for their bowel movements.

I see nothing wrong with limited controlled special treats for the dog or cat if they want it, they are curious and like the smell of weed without even knowing what it is so its not hard for them to be inquisitive and want to try it. Maybe you should lighten up and consider our veiws. Peace

You fed a half ounce to your dogs, then stated they would never eat another weed-laced treat... Sounds really limited...

And yes i did give two big dogs a half ounce of brownies to share, i wanted to explain how a small sensible amount once in a blue moon was appropriate not getting your dogs mashed like i mistakenly did, as my dogs were ok i felt it a good way to reasure this dude his dogs will be ok. I also bought my dogs the best allergy free dog food even cooking veg and chicken for them reguarly like food they get in the wild, i cant be 100 percent responsible all the time but i try.

You have no idea of the physiological effects of cannabis on dogs, and neither do I. However, if a person ingested a half ounce of weed in a sitting it wouldnt affect them like it did your dogs. Congratulations on testing your half-baked theories on your loyal pets.
I would hate the effects of eating that much in one sitting, I can't imagine what it would do to a dog. I doubt he'd enjoy it, might even be traumatic.

Yer i screwed some brownies up and they didnt rise so i gave it to the dogs, only after did i think that it could have been a lethal dose but you learn. Think they were a little scared and didnt want to move. Before that they loved sniffing the smoke and always pinched your weed. One or two times one of them ate an eigth and was ok, i guess a quater was too much!lol! Them dogs were more like people though, very clever labradors, we use to buy them pet non alcoholic beer from the pet shop as a treat, they loved that on a saturday night. Peace

Sorry im talking rocky here not skunk, it aint as strong, we get rocky and skunk over here and they ingested a quarter each not a half. And bigger dogs are more tolerant to chocolate and can quite happily handle it but still chocolate is bad.Peace

There's been plenty of debate about whether marijuana is harmful to humans. But it is definitely harmful to your pet.
Marijuana or cannabis, also known as hemp, marihuana, hashish, Mary Jane, grass, reefer, weed or pot is a coarse annual herb that may grow up to six feet tall. The leaves are palmated, compounded with three to seven linear, coarsely dentated leaves. Male plants have small green flowers at the tip while female pants have flowers along the entire length of branch.
Marijuana was originally native to Asia but is now found throughout the world. Marijuana can often be found growing as a weed anywhere in the United States. Often marijuana is cultivated by individuals in the illicit drug trade and is therefore found in out-of-the-way places or as houseplants within homes.
Originally used as a fiber to make rope, marijuana use has evolved and is now used primarily for its hallucinogenic effects. The principal active ingredient of marijuana having a pharmacological effect is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). THC is a psychoactive agent. The amount of THC in a plant varies with the variety of the plant, the sex of the plant, the geographical location in which it is grown, the state of growth the plant is in, and the nature of the growing season. Immature plants or seedlings contain little, if any of the pharmacological ingredient. THC is found in greatest concentration in the female plant at the time at which it flowers.
Marijuana is a schedule 1 controlled substance mostly used by people as an illegal recreational drug. Marijuana is also used as a drug to prevent vomiting (antiemetic) and to increase the appetite of chemotherapy patients. An additional medical use is to decrease intraocular pressure in glaucoma patients. Due to the high potential for abuse and the availability of alternative drugs, marijuana is rarely used for medicinal purposes.
The most common route of exposure to pet animals is oral. Unfortunately, there have been cruelty cases involving smaller animals, such as a cat placed under a large bowl or bucket and someone blowing their used smoke in with the cat, exposing the pet to toxic levels of THC. In dogs, clinical signs develop within 30-90 minutes after ingestion and even faster with smoke. The effects of the THC may last up to 72 hours. The most common clinical signs of toxicosis in the dog include depression, ataxia, bradycardia (slow heart rate), hypothermia (low body temperatures), vocalization, mydriasis (dilated eyes), muscular incoordination, respiratory depression, hypersalivation, vomiting, diarrhea, urinary incontinence, seizures and coma. The most consistent clinical sign in dogs is central nervous depression, usually appearing as if the dog was falling asleep. Additional clinical signs that may be seen include hyperreflexia (exaggeration of the reflexes), hyperesthesia (increased sensation in the nerves of the skin), and nystagmus (rotation of the eyes). It is rare that a lethal dose is taken, although the period of depression may be prolonged.
Diagnosis is based on clinical signs and a history of exposure. Unfortunately due to the illicit nature of the drug, a history of exposure is often not forthcoming. THC is difficult to detect in body fluids because of the low levels at which it is found in plasma. Urine testing early in the course of exposure may help confirm the diagnosis.
In the absence of a history of exposure to marijuana, diagnosis may be confused with exposure to barbiturates or opioid drugs, various poisons, hypoglycemia, or even encephalitis.
When the history of poisoning is forthcoming, the goal is to remove the drug from the digestive tract through the induction of vomiting followed by the use of activated charcoal to prevent absorption. Additional treatment is primarily supportive. Comatose animals are usually treated with IV fluids, treated for the hypothermia and are given valium to control seizures when present.

Reefer-madness anyone? In the U.S. the avg life span for a dog is 12.8 years, My last dog lasted till past 13, he was extremely social,. I find it hard to believe in responsible amounts they were suffering from the effects you described, otherwise he wouldn't have enjoyed it so much. In fact not one time that I got him high did he fall into a depression. Not to mention, where is the study all of this information is coming from? Its really easy to find a scientific sounding journal to back up one theory or the opposition, but where is the actual study? hypothermia (low body temperatures), vocalization, mydriasis (dilated eyes), muscular incoordination, respiratory depression, hypersalivation, vomiting, diarrhea, urinary incontinence, seizures and coma. The most consistent clinical sign in dogs is central nervous depression, usually appearing as if the dog was falling asleep. wow, never had one of those. except muscular incoordination, and thats because he was high, thats not a problem, we expect that. But I'm sure he was just a one in a million, right? †rolls eyes† To be honest, the study probably wouldn't make a difference. If I'm going to go off knowledge I've witnessed myself, or have to take someones word for it, I'm going with what I've witnessed myself. I expect everyone to do the same.
