All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.

Rules (Will be refined later on).

Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here.
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

I hope he doesn't nibble any of it. Weed is quite toxic to doggos. Mine found a gummy or somesuch in a friend's car and spent the night convulsing and peeing on herself. Scary night.

For anyone curious, yes, it is toxic to dogs, yes a little bit will make them very sick, but it actually takes quite a lot to hit the LD50 amount for doggos. Somwhere around 1 gram per lb the dog weighs, which is a LOT of weed.

Still, keep it away from them, but hopefully it helps others to know that while it will make them very sick, it would take a great deal of weed to actually risk their life. So if they eat a bud or two, strap in for a bad night of them throwing up, but know that they're not at risk of death. Unless they weigh like 5lbs.

In its raw plant form? Or only after it’s been decarboxylated?
