Dogs who accidentally ingest cannabis flower <\/span>seldom have fatal reactions<\/span><\/a> because the lethal dose is rather high. But as more medical-grade, concentrated THC products have hit the market, instances of cannabis-related deaths in dogs have increased.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While you should still promptly consult your veterinarian if your dog consumes cannabis, know that flower is generally considered less toxic than concentrates, edibles, or other forms of <\/span>high THC products. <\/span>That\u2019s <\/span><\/a>because raw cannabis flower contains <\/span>non-intoxicating THCA until heated<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other ingredients in cannabis products can pose an even higher risk of death than cannabis alone. If your dog eats a cannabis product with chocolate, xylitol, raisins, or other ingredients that are dangerous to dogs, you could be dealing with a deadly combination.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
