Dog saved from overdose with narcan * 2
    #24519551 - 07/31/17 01:15 AM (6 years, 9 months ago)

LYMAN, Maine
(CBS) – Police in Maine administered Narcan to a dog Thursday morning following a potential overdose.

Authorities say a woman flagged down York County Sheriff Sergeant David Chauvette in Lyman, worried that her 3-year-old yellow lab may have overdosed on oxycodone. She explained to him that “Addie” somehow got into her legally prescribed medicine and now seemed drowsy.


"This morning, a woman flagged down Sergeant David Chauvette in Lyman because she was fearful that her dog, Addie, had “overdosed” on oxycodone. The three-year-old yellow lab had inadvertently gotten into the legally prescribed medication and the owner was very fearful that the dog would overdose.

Addie seemed a bit drowsy and the woman sought assistance from a local vet to no avail. Consequently. She flagged down the sergeant and asked him to administer the popular anti-opioid, “Narcan” to Addie. He did and Addie seemed to perk up a little. According to the owner this evening, Addie seems fine and she is grateful the sheriff’s office carries this life saving drug.
"

A local vet was not able to help, so the owner asked Chauvette to administer the opioid antidote Narcan to the dog. Addie seemed to perk up after getting the Narcan, police said.

“She is grateful the sheriff’s office carries this life-saving drug,” the owner told police.

I chose cannabis over all other illegal or legal drugs for both recreational and medical use. With mushrooms being my second choice.

No one has ever died from cannabis use recreational or medically or mushrooms for that matter.

Millions of people have died from tobacco, alcohol and prescription drugs and almost as many pets eating cigarette buts or drugs their owners left out.

Yet they call stoners stupid. Holy fuck are cannabis prohibitionist or refer madness victims as I like to call them ever moronic!

So in my advancing years I do not take any medication, my straight friends are all on at least two prescriptions each, mostly high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels. One of my friends who really could benefit from cannabis as he has had his third heart attack still tells me how weed has destroyed people lives and how evil it is yet he still smokes two packs of cigarettes a day. :rolleyes:

ROLMFAO so I smoke a joint saddened by the fact I can't save everyone, but content in the knowledge that I have saved myself from a society that is so out of touch with reality that it allows addictive harmful and even deadly  drugs but bands relative harmless drugs because the hippies did them. A society that blames fast food rather then a lack of will for obesity. A society that blames companies for morons that burn their crotches with boiling hot coffee. So I have to laugh because otherwise the only other choice is to cry for the innocent people that our contemporary society is killing either out of greed or just plain stupidity.

Have a nice day smoke a joint and forget about the crap for a little while it will do you more good then any prescription drug will. :grin:

That's not true. People have died from the result of using cannabis and mushrooms, what hasn't happened is death resulting from acute toxicity(i.e.- overdose).

That's a sweet looking dog. Probably well behaved. It's a 3 year old dog... who knows how long the woman in this story had the dog but for but for arguments sake let's say she's had the dog since it was a puppy. So nearly 3 years of having this dog...youd think she'd have known that the dog has a tendency to get into things it shouldn't. Youd assume someone would keep their potent opiate medication in a safe place.

There have been a few of these types of stories (of dogs getting into their owners opi8 stash)in the past couple years and you have to wonder after a while if they were all accidents.

I mean its one thing if whoops you drop the oxy you were just about to take on the ground and the dog happened to be near by and gobbled up the pill immediately as it hit the floor.

Pretty much any other practical scenario I can think of for the dog to get a hold of the medication is either due to complete fucking ignorance or intentional. Who really knows though? I just wonder is all. I've had dogs my whole life and have never had this type of problem.

I have however in the past had a hard time feeding my dog(s) a pill they needed. Even wrapped up in a piece of cheese or lunch meat  the dog would always drop the pill out of its mouth because it's gross, bitter, and the dog knows not food.

ROLMFAO really that is right out of refer madness where they show a body of a dead girl and then claim its linked to her using cannabis.

People have died while on cannabis and shrooms not because they used cannabis or shrooms. Its like claiming alcohol causes drunk driving not the morons who decide to drink and drive. Its like claiming fast food is the cause of obesity rather then a lack of will. Its like blaming how much power a motorcycle has for the rider wiping out. Point is people die from their own stupidity not from altered states.

That's not what I'm saying at all, but that is true. You seem defensive. Not everyone is completely healthy, and we are all different in a lot of ways. The fact is that virtually anything can kill you as long as the circumstances are just right.

I agree circumstances can kill anyone at any time regardless of whether your using a drug or not its called an accident. They happen all the time but if you have any drugs in your system they blame the drug rather then the circumstances. Yet people who use alcohol are legally responsible for their actions regardless of how drunk they are.  People who choose to use drugs are still responsible for their own actions because it was your choice to do so not some unpredictable circumstance.

My point is people who die while on shrooms or cannabis do so as a result of their own preexisting stupidity because both drugs can be used safely, as I have been proving for the last thirty years.

I agree with both of you in some ways.

That said there are also rare exceptions, what if someone has a legitimate cannabis or shroom allergy? It definitely happens, having a bad reaction while tripping or stoned could easily be fatal without someone around to help. I wouldn't blame it on the drugs though but it's not always just from people being stupid either.

People get pressured into using drugs all the time, I have seen people take gram dabs at parties where they are getting pressured into it, only to spend the rest of the night out on the floor unable to function. I blacked out on LSD one time after being pressured into taking a second very potent hit, I was already pretty high and wasn't thinking straight or I would have said no.

I don't think substances should be blamed in most cases though.

Complications can and do arise. Since cannabis has been legalized in several states over several years there have been many instances of children and pets consuming large amounts of cannabis or concentrates. I've not heard of children dying (they ofc were rushed to the ER) but I have heard of dogs dying as a result.

Though I admit I don't specifically remember what they ingested and dogs are highly allergic to many things we aren't, like chocolate.



Anyway, in certain people it can cause complications that may contribute to death. There is no such thing as a safe drug.

But then there's no such thing as a safe world. If they ever managed to cover the world with bubble wrap someone would suffocate.

Education and awareness is always better protection than prohibition.



Also, I'm glad the sheriff helped the lady's dog. Alot of cops would have been more interested in seeing if they could arrest her for something. Or shooting the animal for "being aggressive."
Kind of kidding, either way it's a good note to remember they're not all horrible assholes :cookiemonster:

What he said is no one has died as a direct result from consuming either cannabis or mushroom but people have died as a direct result from these substances, driving under the influence, playing with things they should be while high.

People have accidents all the time, some that can end their life- to think such things couldn't happen while under the influence is ignorance and to think every single person who uses either substance is infallible of making poor decisions is also ignorant.

Some people do stupid shit when they're high, and sometimes doing stupid shit will kill you.

Reefer madness, LOL.

You are just the polar opposite of the reefer madness propaganda though. Of course it's ultimately the responsibility of the person who uses the drugs, but that doesn't change the fact that some drugs can be a factor in accidents or stupid mistakes. Take drugs like MDPV for example, you can have a completely rational person who's careful enough not to get into any accidents, and has no history of causing any harm to anyone else..is that same person more likely to get into some trouble after smoking some weed or smoking some MDPV? Different drugs can draw different lines for what is considered dangerous or stupid, so altered states CAN be partly blamed as well as the people who took the risk in trying drugs in the first place.

That's kind of the risk people take when they alter the state of their minds. I don't get why so many drug users seem to act like drugs themselves can't be dangerous, it's always the peoples' fault apparently when they find out they're not cut out to try certain drugs. You could've ended up like one of those people who killed themselves or gotten injured doing some dumb shit and you wouldn't have seen it coming.

Well said.

Also im not sure why he chose this thread to be his soap box. The subject matter has almost nothing to do with this story.

Fuck it, if he's gonna go on a tangent about a loosely related topic than I will too..

This thread is now about the Air bud movies..

Air Bud (1997)
Air Bud: Golden Receiver (1998)
Air Bud: World Pup (2000)
Air Bud: Seventh Inning Fetch (2002)
Air Bud: Spikes Back (2003)
Air Bud: Barks and Bitches (coming soon)

Ha lol, isnt pot actually supposed to be bad for dogs?

Air Bud: Ruff time at Rehab

Me and my old pup buster used to take tramadol together. He was prescribed it but didn't mind sharing with me on ocassion because he was cool like that. He did eat two roaches i set aside once which was a real dick move.

Set em down on the coffee table, walked out the room for a while and when I came back they were gone. I thought I misplaced them or they got knocked over til I noticed him licking his chops. Opened his mouth and I could smell weed on his breath.

In this case it's not drugs fault. How the hell does a dog eat oxycodone unless the pills are strewn about? 100% owners fault. Its like someone leaving a bug puddle of antifreeze in your driveway and a neighborhood cat slurps away at it. Should it be banned? Nope.

Dogs like getting into things they shouldn't.

Maybe they just left the pill container on a table and weren't paying attention to the dog :shrug:
