Ripley is majorly afraid of fireworks, two years ago he ruptured a vertebrae jumping into a tub in a panic, so we had to get him heavily stoned last night because festivities around here go to 3am. He did better this year and we didn't even have to take the little drooling dope fiend to Taco Bell.

I am lucky. My cat grew up exposed to lots of noise here, and never jumps at thunder or fireworks, or vehicle horns. Nothing moves him much. It is like he got desensitized to loud noises. At least "I" am not the one making the noise, so he is cool.

The last place on earth you want to be is at a Taco Bell by the beach at midnight on July 4th. It looks like this:

My Good Boy Arthur (85lbs Shar-pei, BIG TEETH) had to be drugged every time there was a thunder/lightning storm - which in Phx in the summer was about every week. Otherwise, he was unrestrainable - getting him out of the tub was about impossible. The dope knocked him out - after that, THE MUNCHIES!

I would have to hold mine and sing songs to her with her name in every verse. I sometimes wish I had recorded those hour long.

We had 3 drunken dogs here. Last year was awful for our babies. I must admit doped up wobbly dogs are way funnier and less destructive than the human equivalent.

We never know how much of an edible will calm my daughter's Zuzu down, but we know she lived thru eating 100mg of my dead sister's brownies, even if she was high for 3 days, so I'm liberal with my administration when it's needed

My daughter was watching her sisters dog & didn't realize she could access the box of edibles she took to give to friends after my sister passed away in July 2023. Zuzu found a bag of brownies & ate 100mg of thc. This is her on the way home from the vet who advised my daughter to just keep checking her heart rate thru the night. She still lives to this day as a 16 year old trash can.

Giving edibles to your dog us fucked up. THC is not good for dogs. There are "pet specific" edibles, but they should never be given edibles made for humans. I don't give a fuck abt your "alternative" post where you try to justify this .

Rosalita Esperanza Beyoncé, on the other hand, doesn’t give a shit about fireworks but is always amenable to a Taco Bell run.
