Cannabis for your pets..

Getting your dog fucked up on weed for your own entertainment is despicable and animal cruelty. It is far too easy to overdose them.

Providing your dog with mj as medicine for an issue though, can be VERY effective and compassionate. I used hash oil to treat symptoms effectively and extend the life of one of our pups with a chronic condition by a good year. But in getting the correct dose figured out we did overdose her once accidentally and I felt like shit. The next time I use mj for a dog I will do a dry ice wet kief extraction and not let the weed decarb so the thc remains inactive. I believe this will be a safer approach.

Whoever convinces the swine industry to look into cannabis for swine stress and inflammatory conditions is going to make a forture
http://www.jasbsci.com/content/4/1/19
"Pigs experience biological stress such as physiological, environmental, and social challenges when weaned from the sow. The process of weaning is one of the most stressful events in the pig’s life that can contribute to intestinal and immune system dysfunctions that result in reduced pig health, growth, and feed intake, particularly during the first week after weaning"
Cannabis for weaning piglets could improve feeding, help intestinal inflammation and significantly improve survival and weight gain.

Somebody go make millions on pig drugs!

Like anything else, if people don't medicate their pets correctly, negative impacts can/will occur.

Yes on appropriately medicating pets/animals w/ cannabis; No on dosing pets for entertainment.

I've got one who could surely benefit from it... and i think he's just as entitled to relief and easing of discomfort as anyone/anything else.

Thanks for your response. I have fresh frozen trim from my harvest and I have to infuse it with coconut oil, butter or everclear. Not sure which way would be best for my dog. I will be using some for my health as well.

my 8 lb applehead chihuahua takes hits by licking IN my mouth as i exhale all completely of his own free will. i go through about 1/3 to 1/2 oz a day, an he secondhand hits about an 1/8 daily, with no real noticeable changes. He has a son, a chiweenie, who goes through just as much.

only if i hotbox the blanket with hashy bong rips do they even start to show any signs of im done for now.

They love weed.

My Buddie won't smoke, he hates it, but my Kabel loves it. Buddie is the one that has the tumor. so I can't smoke it with him he won't have that. My dogs are German Shepherds. I learned how to make doggie treats and I have my oil ready for the next batch so let the treatment begin.

Whoa whoa whoa... hold on...

'A dog weighting 25 pounds received an injection of two ounces of an active U.S.P. fluid extract in the jugular vein with the expectation that it would certainly be sufficient to produce death. To our surprise the animal, after being unconscious for about a day and a half, recovered completely. This dog received. not alone the active constituents of the drug, but also the amount of alcohol contained in the fluid extract. Another dog received about 7 grams of Solid Extract Cannabis with the same result. We have never been able to give an animal a sufficient quantity of a U.S.P. or other preparation of the Cannabis (Indica Arnericana) to produce death.'

2 shot glasses worth of concentrated cannabis tincture (inc. wut u know was pure lab made ethyl alcohol) injected into a 25lb dogs jugular vein.....(didnt kill it!?) That didn't seem excessive? These ppl literally got paid to try to poison a dog? The GOAL was to kill the dog?

7grams of of solid extract cannabis? Thats Hash guys! These testing numbers are fucking insane! This is like saying "Cannabis is bad for human consumption, we had this subject sit and smoke 3lbs of cannabis flowers in 8hrs, and now hes vomiting and dizzy."

I have mine plenty diluted, tested it on myself and my husband and now going to make doggie treats to give them the health benefits as well...I used coconut oil and it is healthy on it's own. I would never do anything to hurt my furbabies, they are my life... :peace: Have a great day everyone bongsmilie

i just hate how people say a hit is 10x stronger to a dog. Its not. Unless they eat activated oils (edibles) then all they get is second-hand half stale smoke. They have an endocannabinoid system just like us, meaning a small amount daily is VERY GOOD for them, being that its unlikely they produce an adequate amount themselves.
Granted the first few times they "medicate" there WILL be noticeable effects, just like there was for you.

Thank you for your input. I will be so careful

I'm hoping to get some input on this one.. I am wondering if anyone has medicated their pets to relieve chronic pain, cancer or other issues.

I am wondering what the dosage would be and the best way to deliver. I am thinking this could really help a lot of of four legged friends.
Lots of different answers to your Q darling. I agree with the "put into their food", don't make your dog 'smoke' it.

As for the stems...My pup Miss. Jewel loves chewing on the hemp sticks. When I was first taking down my plants (outside) she would take one de-budded branch go off lay down and chew it all up, never ingesting any of the branch itself, just chewing it, shredding it, then napping for a couple of hours. I let her do this because she is still teething, better the branch then mommy :wink:. Now, she isn't teething the way she was a couple of months ago (10 mo. old now), but I took a 5-gal zippy and filled it up with thick cut cannabis branches and put the bag in the freeze for her. When she wants one, she comes to me, gets me over to the Refrigerator and stares at the door until I open it for her :mrgreen: Totally cute! She doesn't do it all the time, but she lets me know when she would like one.

Be VERY careful dosing your dog with cannabis. I've seen them die from overdose (ex-friend thought it was really cute to get his dog stoned...now dead dog). Go to the feed store and purchase a feeding syringe, this will have a more proper dosage marked on it. Start VERY LOW with your dog, with sever pain, and if needed work your way up. Remember how you first felt when you where high.

You don't want your dog high/stoned, just pain relief, relaxed. Some dogs totally freak out. One dog I knew had a heart attack. Just like cannabis effects people differently, it will for the dogs, just take that into consideration. You don't want a dead dog.

I do herbal remedies on my (2) dogs and only do the vet for rabies or serve emergencies. I've never made hash, so I can't say one way or the other, but...the resins left in your pipe (the brown sticky stuff)...maybe a toothpick dot put on something edible, then feed it to your dog and see how your dog reacts to it.

Honestly, I think that is the best way to find out if your dog can handle it or not, just a dot put on food and go from there :leaf:

I can see why pets would like the branches. They would be getting non-psychoactive THCA and CBDA which is the reason people like to juice MJ leaves. Your pup sounds cute. What breed?

I don't know, a mutt, med. size. When she is 3-yrs I'm going to do the genetic test to find out. I think German Sheppard, ridge-back, not sure about the rest, but definitely got the midget gene. Huge feet she won't be growing into :P I spoil her, can't help it :rolleyes: A bit bigger than my lap now, but she try's. When my laptop is up and running I'll put a pic of her up (all my pics are on there), she really is adorable looking with a personality to match :leaf:

I think it's not really advisable to give some marijuana to your pet. The THC that is absorbed to your pet's blood can cause a rapid heartbeat, disorientation, tremors, seizures, weakness, hypothermia, and even death.
Here is a sensible article about it http://marillow.com/blogs/news/13109581-pets-and-pot-dont-mix.
Have you not looked at the POSSIBLE side effects of OTC brand medicines they give to kids? They list everything to cover their ass in case of a lawsuit.
Btw. Completely shitty link. Id like to see EVIDENCE, and not a reference to ask.com, the shittiest search engine in the world. Pets and pot do mix. All members of the animal kingdom have been found to have a naturally occurring endocannabinoid system. Their body makes the same compounds thc mimics. Thats why they CAN get high. Weed does not even affect insects.
There are so many fallacies in that blog entries argument. Evidence should be able to be properly sourced. All evidence seems to point otherwise btw.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/14/pot-for-dogs-medical-marijuana_n_3755247.html
http://www.livescience.com/42135-pot-and-pets-should-dogs-get-high.html
Those are non-scientific studies, or in other words, personal observations. But they are still more believable than your link.

Your ignorance could end up/land up/wind up meaning your companion doesn't get the best outta life.

Just re-read this thread. Administering 2 shot glasses of tincture (who knows how many grams of dissolved thc) and ethyl alcohol to the jugular. Cruelty, yes. Murdering the dog, apparently not. Scale it down to reality where you are lovingly administering maybe 10mg-50mg to your buddy through normally inefficient methods, and there is likely no harm whatsoever. Plus if you are so worried what could happen when you give it to them, aren't you monitoring them (while high) like a good friend and as long as you gave little bits to start, you should've been able to find your pets tolerance and not overshoot it. If they don't want it, you don't have to force them.
