Cannabis affects the animal body differently than humans. In fact, ingesting cannabis can be dangerous for pets and could result in a medical crisis. If you think your pet ingested cannabis, take them to your veterinarian right away and tell them what happened - symptoms are varied and omitting this information can make managing your pet’s case difficult. Remember, your veterinarian only has your pet's health in mind.
