We are proud to share that Dr. Molly Klein of Ingleside Animal Hospital was recently featured live on Fox 10 Talks Phoenix to discuss an increasingly important topic for pet owners: Pet Pot Safety.
As cannabis products become more widely available in households across Arizona and beyond, it’s critical to understand how they can impact the health and safety of pets. During her appearance, Dr. Klein explained the risks associated with accidental cannabis exposure, signs that pet owners should watch for, and essential steps to take if a pet ingests cannabis or related products.
Key points from Dr. Klein's discussion included:
-
Common symptoms of cannabis toxicity in pets, including lethargy, loss of coordination, vomiting, and changes in heart rate.
-
Why even small amounts of cannabis products — especially edibles — can be dangerous for dogs, cats, and other companion animals.
-
Tips for safely storing cannabis products out of reach of pets.
-
Immediate actions to take if exposure is suspected, including contacting a veterinarian promptly.
