He must have got the munchies, because he just walked over to the Christmas tree, stood on his hind legs, nabbed a candy cane off one of the branches and is now in the corner protectively chewing on it.

He's something else.....

what a character!

my little Fritz, back in 66, would knock over a beer bottle if I set it down on the floor
and drink beer and he did get drunk one New Year's eve.

these dogs are clowns

Maybe he's drunk of the christmas tree water. It'll do that to pets.

Franky likes to eat weed...and yes, he gets all goofy for a while and then suffers from the munchies too, lol.

Did anyone hear about the owl this week?

A Florida family found an owl in their Christmas tree. It had apparently been there since they bought it five days earlier. As they approached it, they wondered, "What is that smell?"

According to them, "it was laying there as happy as can be," kicked-back, blearily watching the world go by.

They vet who eventually examined him looked deep into the owl's glazed over eyes and declared, "This bird is stoned." His feathers reeked of marijuana.

They've named him "Cheech."

but we've recently discovered that Franky likes to eat weed...and yes, he gets all goofy for a while and then suffers from the munchies too, lol

Hahahah! That's funny! Mom and Dad used to have a Jack Russel that had a penchant for Jack Daniels and used to drink out of people's glasses if it got the opportunity. It got drunk one Christmas - very funny to watch.

It's an artifical tree. No water in it.

Nope....where do you come up with these stories, Gene?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

I remember seeing a story once about black bears in appalachia, and how once a year they all migrate to certain areas to gorge themselves on fermented berries that get them very drunk

I've seen that too (I watch Nat Geo as well)

Not a clue!  But if you do find out, let us know!

I bet it does affect dogs. My granny used to brew up catnip tea to chill us monsters out when we were driving her crazy. There were usually around a dozen grandkids at her house so I don't really blame her. Two staples at granny's house were catnip tea and peanut butter by the bucket. They would probably call that child abuse these days.

Hmmm....so it affects people too, huh? Hmm. I'm going to go google that.

Thanks for the info!!

Dogs don't have the same reaction with catnip that cats do. However, catnip smells bad, and dogs like things that smell bad.  So, he's probably having fun with the toy because it smells bad.  Those pictures look like how my Duke plays with all his toys.  He rolls around like crazy with them, then does a "groundhog" imitation if I take them away. 

One of my dogs Belit was a pot thief to the max, She would steal pot in the blink of an eye, she even learned how to overturn my dope box to get to weed, then shred the baggie and eat the dope, one day she ate  about 1/4 oz of skunk weed along with a tai stick and 1/8 oz of afghani hash, she was stoned for three days and I mean stoned. Finally I had to start locking my dope up to stop her.

I know none of this has anything to do with catnip, but I wanted to share this anyway.
