Dog Swallows Marijuana. Should smoking around pets be illegal?

My dog leaves the room when I smoke, so I always go into another room, too. I've known people whose dogs don't mind or like the smoke (my boyfriend's dog was really old and had a torn ligament that she couldn't get fixed at her age, and she and I used to smoke "together" and she was always much happier afterwards). My dog, however, runs away as soon as she sees a lighter or a bong or weed, let alone all three together...so she clearly doesn't like it. She even hid in the closet once, so now I NEVER, NEVER smoke around her. Obviously, it's your choice, but that's becasue your pets don't have a voice. You have to judge the way they react, and try and make them the most comfortable and happy they can be! My poor Roxie is so scared of everything, including smoke!

i think its the owners choice since my dog leaves the room or wants to go outside i never smoke with my dog near me.

Diva likes to get high from time to time. She mostly gets a contact buzz, but she is more affectionate when she gets buzzed

let them do whatever the fuck they want.

yes, smoking isn't good in any situation.

What a lucky dog lol, anyways its up to the owner

YOu have the right to smoke. Animals may not have the choice to leave. If you got a pet give it the respect it diserves.

This question is odd. No one in their right mind would answer this question...oh wait.

is okay!...i dont like cigs..i'd prefer the ganja any day!

The pet owner and probably they aer parents too should pay more attention to what is going on in their house

No,sounds like a good excuse for a cop to waltz right in your house.

my sisters roomate got her cat high. It kinda fucked up the cat, but its still entertaining! That's makes me sound really mean but it was humping a small plant.

Seriously, No!

should be up to the person involved. If the animal didn't want a hit he wouldn't hang around when his owner did!About 30 years ago I had a cat. The neighbor also had a cat that would assult my cat, running her off so he could eat her food. One day I caught the neighbors cat and put him in a paper bag. I then proceded to roll a fat one and fill the bag by shotgunning the whole joint into the bag. I then proceded out to a stump I had been trying to burn and sat the bag on the stump. Next i grabbed the gas can and made a circle about two feet from the stump, then I lit it. After a few minutes the paper bag started to catch on fire. After a short while the cat came alive and broke pout of the bag. I believe he heard Jonny Cash and out of " the burning ring of fire" he jumped, next he cleared the chain link fence, never to be seen again! Now I know that the tree huggers of today would do what they could to put me in the pen if they were to catch me doing that today! My cat loved me for ridding her of that theif and allowing her to eat her food in peace! I know that there are some dogs that eat their own poop! Now THAT should be illegal! We should not have to worry about getting caught with something that GOD put here on this earth!!! He should be the only one to judge us on what we choose to do in our free time!

is fine if the pet is a smoker too. some animals are.

so we can have pets taken away from their smoking owners and placed in shelters, where they'll be euthanized...come on. That's silly.

oh, yeah, just get another owner. lol. So simple.

You are clueless. Honestly.

lol.

I said you're clueless because you don't have the room to take every single animal that would be taken away from people who refuse to quit smoking aorund their pets. And because you clearly don't know much about PETA. They kill animals, too.

haha... are you a vegetarian cause if your not then you shouldn't be in PETA. Yea i know it's sad that they kill animals but they don't have to torture the animals before they kill them, that is just wrong!!! I've seen their videos and I know.... Why don't they just kill'em quick so they don't have to suffer through the pain..

If the animals don't like it then they can leave.

drinking water should be illegal
cuz it spills and makes people slip and fall

i guess infants and babys and little children are retards then
cuz they spill things all the time

HAHAHA but if you were to drink cokes everyday then that'll for sure kill you and try to put a cover over the cup of water that way... it doesnt spill

smoking around ANYONE should be illegal!!
Second hand smoking is even more dangerous then you smoking it yourself!!

Second hand pot smoke will get you high not kill you...

but it's still dangerous

NO its not....

so it's safe to be around a person who is smoking pot then someone smoking cigarettes...

YES it is, there are no CARCINOGENS in WEED...

you are less likely to get cancer smoking marijuana (weed, ganja, pot, dope, a doobie, joint, etc.) but more of a chance to get Emphysema. LOOK IT UP.LOL

Eating in public should also be illegal.
