ALLEGHENY COUNTY, PA (WTAE/CNN) – A Chihuahua was taken to an emergency veterinarian Thursday after drinking spilled vodka in a car with a suspected drunken driver, police say.
Maxwell, the Chihuahua, has a scary story to tell.
“A gentleman was intoxicated in a car and I guess had vodka in the car that spilled, and Maxwell got into it and drank some,” said Dimitri Brown with University Veterinary Specialists in Peters Township, PA.
The dog was taken to the vet and treated overnight after police found him in a car with Thomas Bloedel, 44, Thursday afternoon. The man was heavily intoxicated, police say.
So, too, was Maxwell.
“Evidence of poisoning from the alcohol, he was stumbling around like a person who was drunk. His pupils were dilated,” Brown said.

Dogs and beer one thing...Dogs and alcohol quite another. I find it hard to believe a dog would lick anything that burned its mouth..but thats just me.

Never believe the story of a drunk chihuahua......
Next, I knew Chihuahuas couldn’t hold their liquor. St. Bernard, on the other hand...That is why they have a liquor barrel..:-)
“Tequila makes his collar fall off.”
Fortunately I cannot find that picture of Barney Frank wearing a dog collar.

Knew an elderly gentleman who drank at the bar every day with his Chihuahua sitting in his lap.
They shared the old man’s rum and cokes.
First thing I thought of Rusty
Oh the Huge Manitee! Guy is in his car drunk, could have killed someone, but the drunk 3 pound dog is the story. Little guy must have run out of tequila.
rum and coke..Not straight Rum.Dog was love the sweat soda
In college three of us shared a trailer. The idiot girlfriend of one guy gave him a chihuahua. When he was gone, we’d give the dog a saucer of beer.
After a few minutes for it to soak in, we’d clap our hands, sending the dog scurrying down the hall to hide under his owner’s bed. Sometimes he couldn’t navigate the turn and would run headlong into the door frame. Staggered but uninjured, he’d recover and ease under the bed.
My roommate got rid of him when the dog started to poop in his shoe.
