My dog ate some weed

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear about your pup's little adventure with "weed." It's not uncommon, and I'm here to help guide you through this.



Cannabis, even in small amounts, can be toxic to dogs. When a dog consumes marijuana, they can experience symptoms such as lack of coordination, lethargy, dilated pupils, vomiting, or dribbling urine. In most cases, these symptoms will appear within an hour or two and might last anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days, depending on what they've ingested.



For now, try to keep your dog in a safe, quiet space where they can't hurt themselves if they get wobbly or disoriented. Encourage them to rest and offer plenty of water to help them stay hydrated. Avoid stimulating activities, as they might be feeling confused or anxious.



Watch for any serious signs such as severe vomiting, seizures, or difficulty breathing. These are red flags that require immediate veterinary attention.



I understand this situation might be worrying, and I'm here to support you. If you notice symptoms worsening or not improving, I'd suggest booking a video consult with Dial A Vet. We're ready to help assess your dog's condition and guide you on the next best steps.
