'As the availability of medical marijuana has increased, so too has the likelihood of animals exposing themselves to it. A recent Durango Herald article documents a distinct uptick in animal ingestion, both through marijuana-infused butter edibles and direct consumption of a plant.
"Dogs love the stuff," Jennifer Schoedler, a Durango veterinarian told the Herald. "I've seen them eat the buds, plants, joints and marijuana in food."
According to a 2002 peer-reviewed study on the subject, Dogs account for approximately 96% of all exposures to the drug, while cats--apparently more likely to just say no--comprise 3%, and other creatures round out the remaining 1%.
Clinical signs of animal ingestion mirror those of humans: difficulty walking and lackadaisical demeanor. Extreme cases may lead to vomiting, urinary incontinence, diarrhea, and coma.'
