My dog is an alcoholic, what should I do?
    #19408323 - 01/12/14 01:15 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

I have a schnoodle. She's a hybrid half miniature poodle half miniature schnauzer  toy dog, a designer dog I guess they're called. She's about seven and a half pounds and she's an alcoholic. It happened pretty suddenly.

She always sits on my lap and I'm always drinking beer so I'd let her have little sips and she liked it. So I started pouring a little in a saucer and letting her drink it. She loved it and it became a regular thing, I'd crack a beer and pour her out a little, she is such a little thing it doesn't take much.

So I had some friends over and one of them was concerned about my dog, that it was stumbling around and I'd better get it to a vet quick. I explained that she was fine, just really drunk. And he said "Oh , I guess that does look like a drunk dog." And it was suggested that I should not let her get drunk several times a day.

So I cut her off. Cold turkey. And she could smell the beer I was drinking and it was bad for her, she'd just sit on my lap and cry for the want of a saucer of beer but I thought I knew it was best for her to not be such a raging alcoholic. And then she shook, from the withdrawals, delerium tremens seizures began. And I relented for the pity and love I have for her, and I gave her all the beer she could drink, and I still am.

So now my dog is a raging alcoholic and I don't know what to do.

If you're for real, have you tried non alcoholic beer?
Acting as a placebo, it may stop the dogs reactions, while still being a healthier option.

This and, taper the quantity you give gradually so that withdrawal is bearable. Tapering is the recommended treatment for human alcoholism and with dogs it works better because a dog cxant crack his own beer.

If you want to be smart about it get some alcohol free beer too and feed your dog the same quantity of a mix, but make that mix lower and lower in alcohol.  Then after doge has been drinking pure alcohol free beer for a while cut her off and it would be ending a tasty habvit, not a substance abuse situation.

You could go to the vet and see if they would put her on a phenalbarbital taper. Or if you don't want to do that taper her off alcohol yourself. If you do that you better be pretty consistent about the taper.

Look, I'm one of the world's biggest advocates of the Placebo Effect. The mind is very powerful stuff. However:


1- I do not know if the placebo effect has been demonstrated in animals, or if it would work. Who knows, perhaps it would. No guarantee, though.

However, perhaps more importantly


2- I would not advocate relying only on the placebo effect in cases of severe alcohol withdrawal. Alcohol withdrawal is only partially psychological. There are some potentially very serious (fatal) side effects from severe alcohol withdrawal.


A slow taper is absolutely the way to go.



OP-- assuming you're not trolling, what the fuck were you thinking? Maybe this should be a wake-up call. Your pet is not smart enough to realize that beer can ruin its life. You are. And you were apparently drinking enough, to the point where you had open beers regularly enough to turn your pet into an alcoholic.... even though it would theoretically take much less to get a dog hooked, I can't help but think this may indicate you're not too far behind your pet, unless you were just opening beers specifically for the dog to drink, and abstaining, yourself.


Alcohol is one of the worst drugs there is. No joke.


Good luck with your problem.

i fed my friends dog beer for a while and still do at a part sometimes he loves it. I only do this like at  most once a month because dogs can not handle alcahol like we can, they have different livers and you are putting your dog at serious risk of liver failure. I know all this because the dog i feed beer's owner is a veteranary technician and wont let me get his dog to super drunk only like 3 beers at most usually wich even he said isn't probly a great idea.
Doge's never drink hard liquer but cat's will!!!

Thanks #9. A slow taper sounds like a plan. It seemed cute and happy for a while is what I was thinking, I didn't expect it to spiral out of control. And yeah, maybe I should stop drinking beer too after the taper, just for the fact that it would be torturing her in a way to have to smell my beer and not be allowed any. I guess my dog and I will quit together. So maybe it was a good thing afterall, I learned from my dog a lesson I'd have not learned any other way. She's a reflection of myself and I needed to see that. :heart: :dog:

Bullshit. Animals have their preferences just like people. My buddy has a dog that will steal my entire drink if I set it down, and I drink scotch on the rocks, so it's not even like it's sweet.

Put benzos in your dog's food, it will help with the withdrawls.

dude go to a vet... phenalbarbital is commonly prescribed to dogs for seizures and to humans for alcohol detox so that's probably what they'd give him.

Experiment with the alcohol free beer, for science!

We need you to become a nobel prize winner for your intensive alcoholic dog placebo study. You have to keep an detailed logbook, and do some crazy calculations on chalkboards.

Once you have succeeded, you need to donate money and quote the shroomery for it's role in your scientific revolution. Internationally recognized fame will do good for psychedelics.
