Sophia’s Story

This hospital did not offer extended care into the evening, so they referred us to the Animal Emergency Clinic of San Diego, where they monitored and treated Sophia overnight.

The waiting was sheer torture, time seemed to move so slowly for me. I was scouring the internet for any information I could find to help understand what was happening.

While I did find multiple websites that offered general information on symptoms and possible treatments, there was not one all-inclusive website to help me locate a veterinarian or hospital during my time of panic. There was nothing simple and clear on the web to point me in a direction that housed all the answers I was looking for, and to bring me peace in this stressful time.

During our visits I learned from three different veterinarians (the two in San Diego that treated Sophia and Sophia’s regular vet) that pets ingesting cannabis is quite common, and that they see this all the time, especially in cities where it is legal at the state level.
