Pot-laced poop getting dogs high
The Aspen Times ^ | July 8, 2019 | Carolyn Sakaraison

Dogs in the Roaring Fork Valley have found another way to get stoned other than the bo ring break-in of edibles at home: They are eating human feces tainted with marijuana.

Dr. Scott Dolginow, who owns Valley Emergency Pet Care in Basalt, said he is seeing anywhere between three and 10 dogs a week that come in with marijuana toxicity.

His working theory is that these dogs are eating human feces that have enough THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, in it to carry over for a second high. And they are finding these piles of pot-laced poop on trails and in campgrounds. Snip click here

Aspen has a population of less than 8,000. There are six pot shops in the downtown area, the highest concentration of shops in the state.

Does this imply that the dogs have s*** eating grins?

I think this calls for the establishment of a new federal agency, ASAP.

Where I live, a dog wouldn't have any chance of finding any human poop. How is it that Aspen, a town of 8000, home of the uberwealthy, has readily available human excrement laced with marijuana for dogs to eat?

I thought dogs would be smarter than to eat poop.

My son has been volunteering in a vet clinic. He saw a patient one day that ingested his master’s pot, as well as some of his chocolate. It was awful. The dog’s eyes alternated between huge pupils and pinpoint pupils. He was miserable. I do not wish this on anybody’s pooch.

Dogs eat human feces? Where are all the anti-pit-bull apologists, can you confirm this culinary behavior as fact? I wasn’t aware of this.

Buddy, “Hey Spot- is that poo?”

Spot, “Sure looks like it”

Buddy, “Looks liek it, but do you think it is?”

Spot “I dunno, smell it”

Buddy, “Smells like poo”

Spot, “To be sure, Feel it”

Buddy, “Feels like poo”

Spot, “Just to be super sure, taste it”

Buddy, “Yup tastes like poo. I’m Sure glad I didn’t step in it”

Wow, this is such a sad sign of the times!

Thanks a lot for posting. I sent the article to my daughter who is a Veterinary Technician in the Denver area and asked her if her clinic has seen this yet.

“anti-pit-bull apologists”

I’m not sure such a person exists. I’ve never heard a person who hates pit bulls apologize for anything....certainly nothing related to dogs.

I always thought of Goofy as dog-gish, but Pluto was more specifically a dog:

Enjoy, good dog.

Close to home. You are quoting an old Cheech and Chong skit, and one of the local Arizona Marijuana dispensaries has actually hired Tommy Chong himself to be their spokesman. For medical uses, don'cha know?
