Dogs like trips in the car, not in the head. But sometimes accidents happen.
Junkyarms was at work when he saw his roommate and a roommate’s friend laying on the floor with his dog. Moondog, as he was aptly named, had just eaten a quarter ounce of magic mushrooms.
“The shrooms were in the bottom of a vase covered with random papers and what not. He seeked [sic] them out and ate the whole bag.”
While waiting for the vet to call back, “Moondog stood up when I got there and just started peeing right in front of me. He just sat there with me on the edge of the universe for the next few hours. He did great! Turns out the vet told us that dogs metabolize mushrooms much quicker than humans so what would have made me trip out for 12 or so hours only lasted about 5 for him. (It was 12 years ago, so my memory is not perfect),” he writes.
“He came up on the couch and we bonded for awhile. He hadn’t slept in the bed with me for a year or so and he started back up after that night. This was the second time this happened.”
While we can’t verify if a dog trip is over in a flash, we can verify that magic mushrooms are, generally, not lethal to dogs.
