Dr. G's At-home Vet Story
00:00:42
Speaker
We're recording on 420, baby.
00:00:45
Speaker
or twenty
00:00:49
Speaker
and did april twentieth I'm doing well, um but I did have, I had an at-home appointment the other, the last week that I wanted to share with you guys.
00:01:02
Speaker
Tell us about it, babe. Could have been real bad. oh no. So there I was working on the weekends, got called to someone's home a little over an hour away from me to help say goodbye um because as the appointment notes said, the patient had been in a comma for 24 hours.
00:01:22
Speaker
Oof. I hate that. I much prefer a semicolon. Right. Ampersand maybe. Maybe. um ah Dashes if it's Chad Chibi. I do miss working in emergency rooms because the ah speed at which triage notes are written leads to a lot of fun spelling mistakes. Oh, of course. um But this one's fun, too, because some of my clients book themselves online and it's up to them. So there we were on our way to this dog that had been in a comma for 24 And I call my client on the way there and they express how, you know, but beside themselves
Misinterpreted Coma and Dog's Recovery
00:01:58
Speaker
they are. But, you know, they were really confused because this dog's favorite person, their gardener, came to say goodbye before I arrived and the dog finally lifted his head for a moment.
00:02:07
Speaker
It was a And I'm trying to spin it on the phone of like, well, you know, this is a blessing that, you know, throughout it all, like that connection was there and they were able to say, you know, give acknowledgement and say goodbye to one of their best friends, you know, her her boyfriend. And they said, yeah, it's just, it's really confusing. I said, absolutely. Well, when I get there, we're going to physical exam. You know, we're going to go over everything and and make sure this is the right decision.
00:02:33
Speaker
And I get there and take my shoes off because it's a very nice home. And we get in and the whole family's kind of crowded around in the kitchen. This dog, it's on a giant bed next to a second giant bed next to a third, slightly smaller bed by wait, wait.
00:02:46
Speaker
Was there a gong? Did you check for gongs? but I did not check for gongs. Okay. This was, it seemed like not a lot of people lived in this house. They lived in the house next to, it was a thing. ah But yeah, there's i've seen some small gongs in homes, but never, never like that story. Never a full size gong. Gotcha. never that size I'll be waiting. Yeah.
00:03:11
Speaker
And, um you know, the gardener's still there and they say, yeah, like she lifted her head for him. And I went over and yeah, the dog was lateral on its bed in the sunbeams not moving, hadn't eaten or drank anything 24 hours. It had been there, you know, they were telling me he's out the beach and, you know, a little bit later we're back home and then it just kind of froze in the backyard and stood still and then it wouldn't move and they were to get inside and then it laid down and just would not get up.
00:03:37
Speaker
I said, okay. And I lift the dog's head and I look at its eyes and I shine. I check some PLRs. They're there. and Pupillary light reflex. Sorry. Yes. yeah I was just going to ask, what is that? It is where we shine a light in your eye and your pupil constricts.
00:03:55
Speaker
um And that's good. That's good. That's right You want it to happen in the one that you shine it? You want it to happen a little bit in the one you didn't shine it in. Those were also there and intact. So it had People already like response. It had a dazzle, which is when you shine a really bright light and they blink a little bit.
00:04:13
Speaker
um It had it all. So then I lifted up its head and it kind of looked at me for a second, too. And they were all just shocked. Which was great. And I said, all right, I think we need to try to stand stand her up. And like she's been she's been out since three o'clock yesterday. And I said, all right, well, we'll be careful. Mm hmm.
00:04:33
Speaker
Prop this girl up. She's not strong about it, but she's standing. What?
00:04:40
Speaker
you You're a miracle worker. or She's been in a coma. How's this happening? It's like Lazarus. Yeah. Let's try to
Suspected Marijuana Ingestion
00:04:49
Speaker
get her something to drink. And then she doesn't want It's like, well, maybe we entice her with a little bit of, you know, lusodium chicken stock or broth. Do you have anything?
00:04:55
Speaker
and Grandma says, absolutely. And she runs across to the other house and comes back with some homemade stock. And I smell it. And it is ripe and strong. A good way. Yeah. Yeah.
00:05:06
Speaker
This is homemade. And I say, a way, a dog would say, oh, hell yeah. Yeah. I say, is there anything any onions in there? And she's like, no, not really. And the granddaughter says, there's so much onion in there. and I said, OK, we can't give this.
00:05:19
Speaker
um And then someone found another another bucket of stock in the bucket container. in the cabinet pantry they got that dog took a couple licks then we got some dry treats dog liked that but then it looked a little bit like it couldn't swallow it so great so now i'm talking about cranial nerves i'm talking about toxins i'm talking about tumors cancer brains but also toxins and i wonder then i says tell me a little bit more and like this that that we're the beach froze wherever unattended no do we ever get anything no she's the best girl okay
00:05:52
Speaker
Well, then I look and there's like a little drop of pee on the bed. And it's like, well, hang on. And I stand her up again. i see a dribble of pee, a little dribble of pee again. Hmm. Now, Kel, what do you think's going on right now?
00:06:07
Speaker
Uh, well, she's having some bathroom issues. but Yes. Yeah. yeah i noticed I noticed that. No, um, it sounds like she ingested something.
00:06:22
Speaker
Or, yeah. That's where I am. I think she either ingested something or something really bad. Yeah. So then ask someone on the other side of the room, this is going to be really rude, but can you clap really loud for me?
00:06:34
Speaker
They clap and face twitches. And I'm like, okay, someone the other side of room, you clap. Another face twitch. She picks up her head and looks. Is this dog drunk?
00:06:47
Speaker
ah My suspicion was marijuana was top of my list at this point. If not some primary neurologic disease that was being very tricky. Inebriation, you know? Yes. So I shared that and they thought, really?
00:07:02
Speaker
we got to eat a little more. We got to drink a little more. We came with a game plan. They were going to go to their vet or the ER today to get some blood work. We're missing anything. check ah Check a blood sugar, check blood pressure, get all that good stuff in.
00:07:13
Speaker
And I left, but I said, you know what? Today's not their day. And they were very appreciative. And I said, keep us posted or I don't want to know. We can certainly come back if if we slip back in, okay? they said, yes. And the next day, i get a video texted to me of this dog running amok at the beach.
00:07:31
Speaker
Amazing. Zoomies galore. ah We're back. We're good to go. So... I believe this was a big, big marijuana ingestion that it just needed a full day ah vibes pissing itself. Some lunches pissing itself and sleeping it off. Your boyfriend.
00:07:55
Speaker
Yeah. ah
Discussion on Marijuana Ingestion in Dogs
00:07:57
Speaker
Did you say what kind of dog it was? I did not. Is it was a little dog? ah Middle-aged, large breed dog. Oh, so would they have had to ingest a lot of that something? A decent bit, not ton. You know what? I haven't done the math. It's been a minute. um But generally, it's going to be if you think they got into it and they know that they ate something before they're clinical, you make them puke.
00:08:26
Speaker
If they're clinical when they are a little bit, you know, uptunded kind of tired, not responsive, you don't want to because if you force them to vomit and they can't control everything, they could breathe it in, aspirate it. ammonia and flow for the complicated so much worse yeah so this guy was at a point where ah she she should not have been puked um and she was already almost 24 hours into the situation so she was bound to get better i had a couple work in er's and overnights where you know they needed to really just kind of sleep it up did anybody fess up to uh having mary jane on them
00:09:03
Speaker
No one did. And we were all pretty candid. Yeah. Nobody did. But they lived um they lived ah on a version they lived on a beach. yeah That's fair. It was a surf spot.
00:09:15
Speaker
And so who knows? Things could have been out. will I've heard that sometimes if your weed is confiscated by the police, they will just dump into the grass.
00:09:27
Speaker
Oh. Because they don't have the room to just put it in evidence. It's like not worth it to them. So they'll just throw it in the grass, shuffle it around.
00:09:38
Speaker
Nobody's thinking about those dogs. No, that's irresponsible. Guys do better. Yeah. Come on. Serve and protect. Yeah. Maybe that's what happened.
00:09:48
Speaker
Maybe. so that was that was not that long ago. And it felt it felt apt for today. It does feel apt for today. ah Yeah, definitely, definitely worth ah discussing so people know the signs because it does look pretty scary, especially if you don't think they got anything.
00:10:06
Speaker
You would think they were in a comma, but they weren't. No, they were. Just sleepy. She was in an ellipsis. Yes, thank you. Thank you for the clarification. That's perfect.
THC-themed Episode Plans
00:10:20
Speaker
I will say you inspired me. Dr. G messaged us being like, hey, it's 420. Should we do THC episode? And I said, ah, yes, I have a few stories like that. So my stories are also the same theme as that one. All right.
00:10:37
Speaker
Perfect. He'll love to hear about it. I briefly worked at an animal poison control center and we would certainly get um some THC calls. And I always liked those ones, because, you know, it's not that bad. Unless they get like gobs and gobs and gobs of it. It looks really scary for a moment, but they just gotta to like sleep it off, baby.
00:10:59
Speaker
Wait, did you do that? Would you do that later in? No, I did it while we were in school. okay. Fun. Yeah, it was super fun. um You know, that's the closest I've ever gotten to working in in a call center.
00:11:13
Speaker
Don't need to ever do it again. ah But I learned a lot. It was a great time. Got to meet quite a few characters over the phone. Some great... ah personalities coming through on the other side of the line and when you're just calling a random call center to ask about medical advice. celebrities we cannot name had called into my place. True. Not me personally. I never got to talk to any of the celebrities, but I did hear word once i was an inner an insider. I did hear of a few... ah
00:11:44
Speaker
unnamed celebrities who most of whom have an assistant call under a different name.
Animal Poison Control Stories
00:11:49
Speaker
So it's probably more celebrities than you think, especially before weed was legal. But there were at least two that called themselves. And honestly, mad respect for those two celebrities. those search so That facility is cool, though.
00:12:02
Speaker
It's very cool. It feels like they're in Quantico, three computer screens in every cubicle. But you get to bring your dog to work if you want, right? Yeah. It's actually very cute. And the toxicologists were some of the nicest ah doctors I ever got to work with. Shout out to them. i won't say which one I was at, ah but it it was a great time. And everybody there was wonderful to work with.
00:12:22
Speaker
I will say as my stint as a receptionist, people would call and be like, my dog ate this. My dog ate that. And I would always say, call the poison control hotline first for dogs. Just call.
00:12:36
Speaker
Because it's cheaper for it to be a o not that big of a deal than to come in and have the doctor call for you when they've already charged you for the visit.
00:12:48
Speaker
So always call first and then you get a case number. In my head, it's still a $60 phone call, but that's probably changed. i sure it's more, a but, um you know, talk to your vet about it. Some microchip companies have some deals where they will discount ah calls to your poison control center.
00:13:06
Speaker
um Some companies that really care a lot about animals will cover the cost of exposures because they stand by their products and the safety of their products, which I think is beautiful. So it's always worth giving a shout out.
00:13:19
Speaker
um And yeah, they're like the nicest, coolest people you'll ever talk to over the phone about your animal. So do it. yeah Maybe you got a ah chill dealer that loves cats. Like maybe they'll comp you.
00:13:31
Speaker
Yeah. You never know. Just call. Just call. Call. Call now. Call to die. And they're open 24 seven. i mean, on that note, I might as well get into about the stories. Right.
00:13:44
Speaker
I think so. ok Yo, pass that story. Pass that story around. Do it. The pug is ataxic. Their urine is dribbling. And oh my God, how much THC was in that cookie? It's time to spill the kibble.
00:14:03
Speaker
Spill it, spill it. What kind of cookie? I didn't want to say brownie because I didn't want chocolate involved. Right. oh yeah Nice. and that's A nice safe infused sugar cookie. Exactly. Cool. You know, we'll dip on the drama. Yeah, we'll do ah we'll do a chocolate episode one day, but that's not for today. Yeah.
00:14:28
Speaker
Valentine's or Easter? What's the most chocolatey holiday? oh Oh, yeah. That's a huge one.
00:14:36
Speaker
Halloween. Also, by the way, you can submit your story for at spill at spill the kibble dot com. That's S-P-I-L-L at spill the kibble dot com. And also, i updated our website and we have a submit form yeah on our website. So if you don't even want to email us, you can do it anonymously and I'll never have your information and I won't bother you. There you go. that's i never I would never bother you anyway, but And hey, you know, if if holidays or themed things really start inspiring some stories for you, send them our way and we will we'll save them for a future future episode ah that has a little theme to it. That'd be great.
00:15:19
Speaker
Yeah. What's that website that has the submission form? Spillthekibble.com. Perfect. And how do you spell it? S-P-I-L-L-T-H-E-K-I-B-B-L-E dot com. That's what I thought. I just want to make sure you knew.
00:15:37
Speaker
So I have one story from a book I found and the other is from the Bark Web. Amazing. What book are allowed say? So the book is called The Accidental Veterinarian Tales from a Pet Practice by Philip Scott. Thank you. i would say thank you, Dr. Scott.
00:15:56
Speaker
Yeah. Dr. Scott. Isn't that from... while you were a picture show? Yes, it is. Dr. Scott. Yeah. So this first story is from that book. Fantastic. Thank It begins with a dog named Bouncer.
00:16:16
Speaker
Great name. Never heard it before. That's great. Me neither. That's a new one. Bouncer, a young black lab, was rushed in by Mrs. Rogers one otherwise quiet Monday afternoon.
00:16:31
Speaker
I don't know what's wrong with him. He was fine this morning and then just now I found him staggering, barely able to stand. Sure enough, although Bouncer could walk, he was extremely wobbly and kept falling over. His pupils were dilated and he had a facial expression that could only be read as pathetic confusion.
00:16:54
Speaker
oh That's completely fair. Bubba Bouncer. Bouncer. As Bouncer was young and otherwise healthy, my colleague immediately suspected poisoning and told Mrs. Rogers that the next step was to induce vomiting.
00:17:10
Speaker
Mrs. Rogers readily agreed, and the hapless bouncer was taken to the treatment area to have his stomach emptied. What do you guys think about that? Is that what you guys would have done?
00:17:21
Speaker
Yeah, it seems like it's it's tough to say. It feels like right on McCusick, what I was saying before, of if they're already a little too affected, it could be dangerous to make them vomit. But we have to trust this ah this doctor's discretion unless it ends with aspiration pneumonia. Yeah. Listen, he wasn't in in a comma all day for 24 hours. ago so He was fine this morning, so he might be fine. He could also be doing his best Jack Sparrow impersonation. We haven't asked him.
00:17:49
Speaker
Right. Was this on Halloween? It was a quiet Monday afternoon. Maybe. yeah it's too Too soon to tell. Okay. Stay tuned, though. Okay.
00:18:00
Speaker
So we'll continue. It's not always that easy to induce vomiting, nor is it always recommended. Check with a veterinarian before trying to do it yourself. Words of wisdom.
00:18:12
Speaker
But with Bouncer, it was gratifyingly easy and gratifyingly productive. Out came an enormous wad of green plant material and a small, shiny, tan-colored object. What do you think the other object was? Small, shiny, tan. Do we have any other dimensions?
00:18:35
Speaker
No. Small, shiny, tan. Small, shiny, tan. This is where my nerd comes out and I don't know enough about cool kid activities to recognize what this, I'm like, is a bong tan?
00:18:51
Speaker
ah Paper? I think the color is dealer's choice, but. well yeah let's Like rolling paper, is that shiny?
00:19:02
Speaker
Let's round down and make it a bowl. Can you use wrapping paper as rolling paper? Get in the comments. I don't know. You could. It burns. It's paper. i don't know anything. little fern.
00:19:13
Speaker
Should you breathe that in? I have no clue. I'm going to pivot not a bowl to Zippo later. oh okay. I'm going to say a little pipe.
00:19:24
Speaker
ah You guys are not thinking outside of the box. oh Oh, it's Taco Bell.
00:19:33
Speaker
Wait, that's outside the bun, my bad.
00:19:38
Speaker
Small, shiny, one penny. A Barbie leg. Two Barbie legs.
00:19:46
Speaker
A Barbie skipper and a Kelly. Go ahead.
00:19:50
Speaker
Would you like to know what it was? Yes, please. Okay, well, the green material was marijuana. Sure. And the small, shiny, tan colored object was a condom.
00:20:02
Speaker
Oh. In the wrapper.
00:20:06
Speaker
No. Unknown. That's the only information I have. Okay, shiny. Yeah. What? They trying to smuggle stuff? That's ominous. Don't they put drugs in condoms sometimes and like swallow them and stuff?
00:20:18
Speaker
I've heard that they do. Do you think they they made the dog mule? I don't know. I hope not. it didn't go well for them if they sure that I'm sure that does happen. Let's not go down that path. That's sad and scary. But maybe it was just like a you know, like a naughty citizen that was up to naughty stuff. It broke into a frat house.
00:20:43
Speaker
Bread House, could be. Bouncer. Sorority. Bouncer. It's all good to hear. Bouncer, yep. A club. He was just trying to keep the peace. Nightclub. In the club.
00:20:57
Speaker
Okay, well, let's continue. Okay. My colleague debated briefly how to present this information to Mrs. Rogers, a conservative-looking middle-aged woman.
00:21:08
Speaker
but decided that the direct approach is always the best. There was a moment of silence as Mrs. Rogers processed it. After being reassured that Bouncer would quickly make a full recovery, her facial expression changed from concern to bewilderment to dawning realization to anger in a matter of seconds. It was like watching time-lapse video of weather systems. Ha ha ha ha ha!
00:21:37
Speaker
What do you think she realized? She knows where this came from. She knows who brought it to her beautiful, beautiful baby dog. Well, someone's cheating. She hasn't used condoms in years. yeah but Possible. Would you like to know? Yes, please. all ah The second most more than anything ever. We'll just end it here. She says, my son's room is in the basement and Bouncer was down there this morning.
00:22:10
Speaker
An hour or so later, a very tall, very skinny, very ashen-faced, red-haired young man came in to check on Bouncer. He didn't say anything to his mother, and he studiously avoided making eye contact with any of the staff. Hopi getting read the filth.
00:22:27
Speaker
What kind of shame ritual to be like, get in here and say sorry to your dog in front of everybody. I don't know what kind of parenting that is, but I'm kind of a fan. I think that that's a good shame based punishment. Like, I'm not going to make you pay this emergency bill, but you're going to come here and apologize to Bouncer to his face.
00:22:46
Speaker
You're going to tell Bouncer you're very sorry. you We're a bad boy. You're going to be paraded through this hospital as the source of the drugs. Now, Kel, as the only human parent here right now, does that approach feel, does that feel like the right way to go about this?
00:23:03
Speaker
uh you know what i am not gonna say anything i don't mom shame hair um she could this could be great this could be exactly what her son needs every kid's different um i don't know what i'll do with my kid yeah she's a hellion so i don't think this would work i'll have to be more creative than this ah but that's fair you know I had one once where we were all trying to figure it out. There was a there's a young woman in the room as well.
00:23:34
Speaker
And just a lot of like lot of tight lip silence. No one wanting to say. was like, well, it could be these could be a lot of different things. Could be some scary stuff, but it could also be marijuana. So if there's a chance, it would just be really good to know. If not, we're going to to go get a drug test.
00:23:49
Speaker
Still, silence. So I was like, all right. um There's a CVS across the street. I need you guys to go get a drug test. We're going test. it We're going to find out what it is on this.
00:24:01
Speaker
I saw a look, darting eyes, and I'm like, let me just go take a step out for a minute. I have to check i have to check on another patient, but I'll be back, okay? We'll keep talking about this. Something happened in that room, team.
00:24:15
Speaker
Discussions were had. Discussions were had. We found out what happened, and we did not need to go get a drug test. That's similar to my my case, one of my first like THC cases. This girl was adamant. She was like, no, there is no weed in the house. like i swear I don't allow it. like There is no weed in that house. And I was like, all right, girl, like that's fine. And you know it was kind of a seedy area. So I was like, maybe some kid like threw it over the fence because they saw somebody coming and they panicked. you know It happens. That was usually the excuse that I would give people just to be like, who knows, man, could have just gotten thrown into your yard, which it could have.
00:24:48
Speaker
um she called back later and she said that it was her brother and she said I told him you are not allowed to bring weed into this house and so he's like I didn't bring you in the house I was smoking it on the back porch I'm not touching you I'm not touching you and if that is not the most sister brother situation yeah I don't know what else is he's like it was outside the whole time it never entered the house actually Words matter, okay? If you don't want me to break your W. Like it's some sort of like fairy contract that you're entering.
00:25:24
Speaker
We're going to trip you up. She still owns the land, dude. Right. Yeah. It's a real Rumpelstiltskin situation. You got to really figure it out. On premises. not you I held my hand over the fence, so it was fine.
00:25:38
Speaker
I have another story. Oh, yes, please. This one really was interesting to me. I'm excited to tell this one to you. So we begin. My husband and I went camping with a few other people and our three dogs.
00:25:53
Speaker
Outnumbered right from the get go. When you're camping, there's not always a restroom present and the woods become your toilet. And that's why I don't camp, ladies and gentlemen.
00:26:06
Speaker
Well, I'll camp as long as there's bathrooms available. Yeah. There are some campsites where you can. Well, sure, of course. But if there ain't a throne for this queen to sit on, it's not happening. I'm going to need a bathroom. I'm going to need some sort of a shower situation. Yeah, with heat, preferably.
00:26:23
Speaker
But I'm like a tough guy. Don't get it twisted, okay? Yeah, no, you're super tough. I know. I'm toughie. You go glamping just for the fame. Yeah. The fun of it. Yeah. You just know your worth, you know? Yeah.
00:26:36
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, man, I love going camping. The last time I went camping, we had a blast. And then we also played wizard staffs where you drink your beer and you just have to adding your wizard staff. And then you're drinking from this huge staff by the end of it. eible It's been a while ah since you've camped.
00:26:57
Speaker
And you're keeping, and you're keeping while you're can, so we're not littering. No, I play it every weekend. Last weekend when I was camping with my friends. Just do making those wizard stabs.
00:27:13
Speaker
Okay. The story continues. I caught our healer named Dunn. digging up and eating where somebody had done their business. Gross. Toilet paper and all. Oh, that's sick. No, thank you.
00:27:31
Speaker
After scolding Dunn for being disgusting, we continued on our evening, not giving it another thought. What do you guys think about that so far? Besides disgusting. How do you even manage keeping a dog from doing that when you're camping? i mean, if I had a poop eater, I'd keep him on a leash. No offense. You don't get free reign if you're not responsible.
00:27:52
Speaker
Yeah. The ones that don't openly eat human feces can can walk around. But if you're a culprit and you got to stay close to mom, it's like the kid on the leash. If you're a runner, yeah you're not allowed to be in a crowd without the leash Same thing. I accept the dogs are dirty, dirty guys. um I'm more upset hearing that they scolded Dunn for eating Dookie.
00:28:16
Speaker
Yeah, it's not Dunn's fault. You should have kept him away from it. Dunn, I think she was more upset that it was the toilet paper, too. I mean, he doesn't need that fiber. It's just paper. i think I'd rather my dog eat some toilet paper than some duties.
00:28:28
Speaker
Me, too. but I guess it depends what quantities. Well, to continue. Please. About an hour later, we noticed Dunn laying down. Glazed look in his eyes, which was also bloodshot.
00:28:39
Speaker
Really? His head bobbed back and forth as if the world was spinning. He had a hard time standing up without wobbling and losing his balance. What do you guys think about that?
00:28:52
Speaker
Dun, dun. you're trying it You're trying to tell Dun, dun, dun. These people ate edibles. pooped, the dog ate the poop and got high from that?
00:29:03
Speaker
There's no way. It would have been processed. You think they put pot flour up their butts? and oops That's not what I think. ah he hemp-based hemp ah Hemp-based toilet paper.
00:29:17
Speaker
Oh, there you go. wrong enough so That's wrong enough. Well, what if they had weed in their back pocket and then they took their their drawers down to do a duke and it fell out the way cell phones sometimes fall or turlets if you're not careful. And the deed had already been done and they said, um but it's not worth it. It's not worth it. It's not worth it. I'm not an addict. I got to move on with my life. This is my wake up call. And then they just left the doobie under the dukey. And now, I know this is the 420 episode, but maybe Weed's just a red herring. Maybe there's something else in there.
00:29:52
Speaker
Could be. She could be tricking us. Maybe they pooped on a bunch of mushrooms that were growing in nature and scooped up mushrooms underneath the doody.
00:30:05
Speaker
It's true. It's 100% possible. Shall we continue? Yeah. Do you want to know what happened? Yes, please. A third most so I've ever wanted of anything in my life. Okay.
00:30:17
Speaker
We had later discovered the owner of the bowel movement had also been smoking marijuana that day. Okay. After looking into it, it looked like it was very possible that THC could have passed through the excrement.
00:30:32
Speaker
It was the only logical explanation for such a rapid reaction in the dog's behavior. That's not true. he could have lost it like a cell phone out his back pocket and then duped on it and then didn't get it. That is a logical possible explanation that they didn't think about.
00:30:48
Speaker
us And I'm going to stand by it. We haven't even considered ghosts yet, but please. yeah Aliens. yeah We set Dunn up with a bed and he slept until he recovered on his own, which was a little over 24 hour period.
00:31:05
Speaker
At best, he puked once during his spiritual journey. oh Now, I wonder, do you think it was one of the other people they were camping with and they had smoked and then they just had a, they got like sick and it just all, everything just went through their system?
00:31:22
Speaker
Here's what I'm thinking. Like, okay, they discovered that the owner of the excrement had been smoking heavily. Yeah, that language was troubling. How? It had to have been somebody that was with them, because otherwise, what are you going to do? Walk around the camp be like, who took a shit over there?
00:31:37
Speaker
Who pooped behind our trailer? Because now our dog's wobbly. Was it you? They're like asking everybody? What were you doing? Something doesn't add up. they know They know the culprit. They know the... Yeah, the owner of the XC.
00:31:54
Speaker
What if it was one of them and they just don't want to fuzz up? Oh, maybe maybe. That's how they know. do but Do you think that this is a true story then? i don't know. I think it'd be a true story. I think the science doesn't work for me. These are different organ systems. I don't see inhaling something then coming out in your poop.
00:32:14
Speaker
Yeah, that the smoking was kind of what like threw me. but Yeah, I mean, unless you were just hotboxing to hell and back, I don't know.
00:32:27
Speaker
it was just like on every aspect. It was in every cellular level of your body. i missed a moment before. So it got high. It ate some toilet paper too Cottonmouth, more like cotton alemouth.
00:32:40
Speaker
And the dog is like, because I got half. Because I got half. Oh, Dunn's the name. Dunn. Dunn. Dunn. So I did a cursory Google search. Did a goog.
00:32:54
Speaker
And it can be present in excrement. Yeah. I guess if we're testing urine. Well, ah my quick little Google search says 20% is excreted in urine and 65% or more excreted through feces.
00:33:12
Speaker
So maybe we should start doing, should we test people's poop? Drug poop tests. If you have to test a dog at the hospital, you should really try both. Next time.
00:33:24
Speaker
Just to see if one's a stronger positive. Yeah. All right. It's for science. And we are scientists at the end of the day. It's for science. The next time it comes up for me in practice, I will. But listeners, if any of you beat us to let us know so that I don't have to.
00:33:40
Speaker
For science. We'll make it worth you while. Probably. send you some We'll mention you. Send you some beautiful stickers and we'll mention you. Yeah, which is honestly pretty good.
00:33:51
Speaker
I'm still. Yeah, i I'm still trying to wrap my mind around that science. I don't know. Maybe it's a fake story. It's a good story. Well, that's certainly one way ah for an animal to get into weed. um Obviously, you can't always control how they're going to get into it, but I think it's probably a good reminder for everybody that if you know you have a mouse or you know you're going guests over that are going to have it, be smart. Try to keep it out of the hands of pets and children, ah you know, just to be on the safe side. It's a good reminder.
00:34:21
Speaker
And if you mess up, fess up. I can't think of a single vet that I've ever worked with that would ever rat on you. Never, we're super cool. like So frigging cool.
