Medical marijuana for dogs

How about you post one study involving cannabis being used as an effective treatment for any type of canine cancer. Just one study. You can't find it because it doesn't exist.

What a waste of space you are.

Bye children!

Because dogs are not typically used as lab animals. Plenty of studies on other animals and even some humans. Dogs have CB1 and CB2 receptors as well. And my dog is alive and I'm not the only guy who has success using it. I never claimed there were studies referencing canines directly, merely that there were studies showing it effective as cancer treatment. Why you suppose that this can't be applied to dogs, well, that's on you.

Lucy still says "Fuck you", by the way.

Not to be a dick, but dogs are very often used as lab animals. It's some sad shit.

EDIT: Also, stop feeding the troll. She'll just stop if you stop, I can almost guarantee it, and frankly, no one is getting anything out of the two of you bitching to one another. IMHO

I usually see mice/rats used.

I know dogs have been used in the past (ie: Insulin), but I didn't think they were used that much anymore.

Hell, there probably are studies using canines for this if the above is true, I am not an expert in finding such things though.

All I know is my dog is still alive and certainly would not be were it not for cannabis.

Watch that if you wanna cry like a little bitch. And that's one of the tamer documentaries about how dogs are used in lab research.

SadieL........ You are one sad individual .... what happen to peace & love, smoke a fatty or something. I think you need to go get a higher dosage of thc ...... you're obviously having some serious issues & you're current medication isn't working. Thanks for all the positive vibes people. I appreciate everyones love & concern. Let's keep this thread open to cannabis's medicinal qualities & closed to pessimistic ignorance.

I shouldn't have let her get to me. Good luck with your pup, is that him in your avatar?

i get my 15 lb pom high all the time, if i grind up bud and present it, he eats it, some feel it can be scary for them, but i put it in this light, if he knows after he eats it he feels that way and was not enjoying it, he would not do it time after time when present with it. Hes 13 yrs old in human years so thats plenty of reason to medicate the dog, and if he has a qualifying condition, you should be taking him to select his own medicine imo =O

Yes, that is White Buffalo at 8 weeks we call her Loey ( like Joey with an L), we went to first see her at 1 week old, went back to visit at 3 & 4 weeks, picked her up at 7 weeks. I am a Type 1 diabetic with chronic back pain. Loey is my service dog, I have been training her myself. She is more of a companion but I can take her with me anywhere. Your Lucy is a beautiful dog, we would consider removing her leg ( she's been getting around on three since the biopsy pretty good) but at 90 lbs. it would be too much stress on her other legs. I just gave her about a g. of shake & she ate it dry right out of her bowl. I've been mixing it in her food little by little to se her reaction. One of her funny quirks is she likes to eat green beans right off the vine.

I activated it by simmering butter. I think the drug form is more potent and probably required. Eating dry could help too but it isn't quite the same. Just be gentle to start.

Well said OG! Way to go Lucy! I have a three legged border collie mix, she was an unattended breach birth and her mamma bit off her back right foot. Her previous owners called the vet and he said "bring the puppy in and we will put it down for you" (fucking asshole!) She came to me because her owners got another "expensive" dog that didn't like her... so they opted to get rid of my sweetheart and keep the nutcase. Unless you knew you probably wouldn't notice.

I'm sorry to hear about your dog. What kind of dog is it. What type of cancer? Giving your dog cannabis is not a good idea.

Um... sadielady... you are wrong. My best friend lives next door to a vet who owns a Pomeranian. The pom had an operation a couple of weeks ago on it's knee, it didn't work so they had to go back in 3 days later... success! But the dog was in a lot of pain... so the lady vet calls my buddy and asks him "do you have a little pot I could have for my dog?" We walked over a couple of grams and some extract, within 20-30 minutes the little bugger was drowsy and resting peacefully .

The same guy that provided the weed to the vet is treating his own dog right now with weed. She needs a "TPLO" .... ugh... close to a 3 grand operation. She is a smallish Rottweiler that is BOUNCY with energy. She can't get an opening for her operation for another two or three weeks... so his neighbor the vet told him to keep her well medicated until then to keep her calmed down a bit... what did the vet tell him to medicate her with? You guessed it! WEED!

My dog of 6 years was just diagnosed with cancer. FUCK!!!!!!! Anybody have any experience with cannabis for dogs?

I feel bad for you... it's hard to watch our best friends suffer My old dog "Chewbacca" (a 165 lb bull mastiff) had this same condition, but unfortunately he was diagnosed very late in the disease and was beyond help ... so I had to make the toughest decision in my life and have him put to sleep I cried like a baby when he shut his eyes for the last time.

I really do hope and wish for the best for you and White Buffalo, my thoughts are with you... stay strong.

Inconsiderate Bitch!

Vaper...No Kids here!

i have attached some information about cannabis for dogs,
it can be done, just needs to be the correct formula for dogs please read

• This is a pet medicine and NOT for recreational use on pets. Extensive research and testing were conducted by professionals to develop a safe and effective product for pets. Using human products on pets is dangerous and the results unpredictable.
• It was designed to improve the quality of life of pets suffering from terminal conditions but has also proven to be effective for a much wider range of ailments and conditions
• Veterinary drugs (especially pain drugs) are very limited due to a lack of the huge profits that human drugs generate for the pharmaceutical companies (it’s a much smaller market and so the pharma companies don’t produce many veterinary drugs at all). This is why vets are left treating horribly painful conditions with the equivalent of aspirin. Completely inadequate and inappropriate therapeutics are being used for lack of better alternatives. Pets suffer as a result.

Wow, Amazing stuff. Its about time!

Our dog of 14.5 years is slowly dying of cancer of the throat (and elsewhere) Her weight is down from her normal 75 lbs to about maybe 39-40 right now. Our vet told us operations are out of the question. Basically euthanasia is approaching us as the only option but in the meantime she gets her homemade 'kief treats' made of basically rolled oats, peanut butter, and a little flour with some kief of course. (I can post our recipe if anyone wants it) She loves em and it actually helps her eat. Sometimes she won't eat for 2-3 days and it just kills us. It's so hard to say goodbye, but we are trying our best to pick the day, which we know will be soon. We just hope that she passes in her sleep peacefully, chasing rabbits or whatever it is she used to do. Having just lost a close relative to cancer makes it all the more difficult.

I give my dog roaches for her arthritis. works great. she takes them out of my hand.

where's sadie now? hater troll...

I'm so sorry to hear this. Do right by your best friend. Remember to show weakness is a death sentence in the animal world, and dogs will fool you until they cannot anymore. Your dog will tell you when it's time. I don't have cancer in dogs experience, but I say by all means keep him comfortable, and keep him cookie'd up. When he stops eating and drinking, it's time.
