Just Say “ROH!” – Canines Need More Anti-Pot Education

Ruh Roh! As I’ve not written here many times before, we need to take seriously the growing incidence of canine drug use. The video below is graphic – it’s my duty under FCC rules to let you know that, otherwise I would not. (I apologize that the video opens without your control.)

Dogs get high! I’ve seen it. Our neighbor’s dog, for example, fetches the paper in the morning and runs off into the woods to smoke it. I’ve added pictures of other well-known caninic pot users here to remind you of its extent. Many ignore this growing trend. Too many.

I hope the video below begins a serious discussion of this. It’s too late for that pup: the lab mix, “One Eyed Jack” and his family. Witness his medical record. “Jack” was “dizzy, disoriented, staggering left to right and falling over when trying to sit.” Unreported, but uncovered by your reporter, was that he also “reeked of Oreo cookies” and “laughed inappropriately anytime his vet said ‘dog’.”

Jack is now in counseling but with limited results thus far. Although he still faces criminal possession charges, he still rushes headlong into Seward Park whenever a door is left open. He does not return home until he runs out of rolling papers. Police and other dog owners fear this may spread to their pets, or worse, to squirrels and other woodland creatures. “We’re not too worried about cats, though,” said Seattle Interim Chief of Police John A. Diaz, “they’re pretty much high all the time. Pot, for them, would do nothing more than harsh their bliss.”

I will update this blog as the story develops. For now, please take the opportunity to screen this video for your own pets, except your cats, of course. That would be wrong.
