But now, veterinarians are growing worried about the increasing cases of marijuana overdose in dogs.

Your friendly dog doctor holds a unique place in the U.S. medical establishment—and not just because most of the clientele have four legs. Veterinary medicine is the only medical specialty with no established programs for monitoring and treating drug and alcohol abuse—despite evidence that medical professionals are statistically at higher risk for addictive problems. “Veterinarians in need of assistance fear losing their license and the stigma attached to suffering from an addiction or a mental issue,” according to Jeff Hall, DVM,

Marijuana in the United States has been a big issue for decades dating back to when it was first made illegal in 1937. Using scare tactics, propaganda, and false facts, the government decided to classify the plant as a schedule one drug along with substances such as ecstasy, LSD, and heroin. Marijuana has since become a more common and socially acceptable (Not by the government) drug in recent years. This past year Colorado, Washington, and Oregon had decided to vote on the issue of legalizing marijuana for recreational use. Focusing on Colorado, Amendment 64 passed on November 6th, 2012 which would legalize the possession of up to an ounce of the plant.

The legalization of Marijuana in Colorado has been great news for every user over the age of 21, but has anyone bother to ask the question “What negative impact will this decision have on the children of Colorado”? The legalization of marijuana will increase the risk of use by adolescents and teenagers in our schools. We are sending a message to our younger generation that it’s ok to get “high”. A quote by –Nine-Inch Nails “Kind of like a cloud I was up, way up in the sky and I was feeling some feelings you wouldn’t believe… I decided I was never coming down.” (1)

The issue that I will be researching and attempting to change is to limit the amount of weed dispensaries, and make sure to give a cut of the profit to schools or other organizations. I am choosing this issue because in Colorado weed dispensaries are taking over lots of real estate and not helping the community.

How do medical marijuana dispensaries impact the communities around them? Is the result positive or negative? Do they harm or heal? Medical marijuana dispensaries have become more common in today’s world, leaving controversy in their wake. Even though some people believe medical marijuana clinics attract crime, they actually help the communities around them by boosting the economy and benefitting those with medical need.

In November 2000, voters in Colorado passed Amendment 20, which enabled patients and their caregivers to obtain a restricted amount of marijuana from medical dispensaries (Sensible Colorado, n.d). The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment faced legal charges for creating an informal rule prohibiting caregivers from providing medical marijuana to more than 5 patients at a time (Sensible Colorado, n,d). In 2007, Sensible Colorado, Colorado’s medical marijuana distribution system, won the lengthy hearing, and its victory made way for store-front dispensaries throughout Colorado. Fast forward November 2012, 55% of Colorado’s voters were pro-Amendment 64 (Sensible Colorado, n.d). Amendment 64 made recreational marijuana use legal to anyone age 21 or older. This law was effective January 2014, and almost two years later the changes in the state are astounding.

Question #2: Are individuals given “prescriptions” for medical marijuana? If not, what do they get and how does the process work?

Marijuana is a controversial substance. It is considered a schedule 1 drug by the DEA but it is still legalized in 4 states for recreational purpose which include Colorado, Washington, Alaska and Oregon. Laws against the use, possession and cultivation of this plant are different in different parts of the world. People have been debating about its advantages and its disadvantages for many years. There are a lot of myths about marijuana and very few seem to be true. Most of the people know very less about this so they tend to go with all the ideas that the society has about it. It has a potential to play a significant role in the economic development of a country and lower the crime rates.

A dog’s ability to predict an episode is also something profound. In fact, some have been able to predict incidents 6 to 24 hours in advance. In Gregory L. Krauss journal, “Pseudo seizure dogs” A study involved six patients with seizure response dogs. Four of the six experienced PNES while the other two patients had epilepsy. After the article went to press, they saw three additional patients with seizure response dogs – of whom two had PNES and one had epilepsy. They further cited one study in which a patient was “alerted by his dog 7 minutes prior to having psychogenic seizures.” (Neurology 2007; 68:308-309). In Melissa Fay Greene’s “Wonder Dog” article, published on the New York Times, Greene reports on Donnie Kanter Winokur and her husband,

The legalization of Marijuana has made this drug medically beneficial to the city of Desert Hot Springs. As the first city to cultivate the area with Marijuana in California, the operation of this industrial sized facility sets up high standards for beneficial gain. The majority of law abiding citizens who smokes marijuana are hard working employees who pay taxes and contribute positively to their societies such as our city. The exploding market of marijuana will increase profit helping the city which dangerously fell toward municipal bankruptcy in 2014 can now have economic revitalization. By approval of tax marijuana dispensaries, the city reclaims a vast tract of mostly vacant industrial property to permit indoor cultivation. Although

In This Article review I will be talking about how dogs can be used as a treatment for many medical conditions. In “How Dogs Can Help Veterans Overcome PTSD” by Chris Colin and “Therapy Dogs Help Students De-Stress” by Jen Christensen they both talk about how dogs can reduce stress and anxiety. “Medical Detection Dogs Train Animals To ‘sniff out’ breast cancer” and “ Pets may help reduce your risk of heart disease” both say that dogs can be used to detect medical conditions like cancer and heart disease. In “Can Dogs Sense Seizures and Heart Attacks?” and “Seizure-Alert Dogs Save Humans With Early Warnings” similarly they say that dogs are nowadays used to detect when a seizure is coming soon. Dogs can be used in many ways as an alternate treatment.

Late one night in February 2014, Jack Farrell, 80 years old, called 911 to report a dog attack. He had woken up bleeding on his kitchen floor, his left arm in the jaws of his adopted German shepherd, Max. “ I thought he had turned on me,” said Jack, a retired firefighter. Later, Jack found out that Max actually saved him from carbon monoxide poisoning.When Jack had gotten out of bed during the night, he’d passed out from inhaling the gas and collapsed to the floor. Max likely tried to wake the man by clawing his face. So the dog took Jack’s left arm in his mouth and pulled the man from the bedroom and down the hall, intending to drag Jack out of the house. “He saved my life,” Jack said. Animals bring a number of benefits to their human companion,
