I've seen a lot of drivel in your paper but this beats it all. It clearly states, in the last paragraph, that the vet diagnosed the pet's condition as being stoned on pot and that he couldn't get the owners to admit it. This vet is so good that he can tell without a test by just looking at the dog what substance it ingested? Ya right, and then this God-like healer of pets sets himself up as the authority to judge the owners as being in denial for not submitting to his diagnosis. If he were my vet I'd have fired him. I have healthy pets and none (during 50 years of dog ownership) have ever ingested alcohol or other drugs willingly. I've never owned a dog who would ingest any dried vegetable substance. Yes they graze on wet grass but never dried buds. You guys are just full of fiction sometimes. Do I know that you will not publish this truth? Yes, of course, because I understand the role of the media in Canada today. It's all about goose-stepping behind the government lie, isn't it?
