My two always mither Mr Sheryl when he has a gin but it is the ice cubes they are after, not the drink.  I have never allowed either of them alcohol.

I know its a bit extreme - and a different breed but this could be worth a read concerning a dogs actions after it drank beer

SA - what's a "Theo person"  :huh:

Only ever deliberately given a horse alcohol (guinness), but Mitzi (a late cat) drank some wine I left in a glass after a BBQ when we went out - when we got home Mitzi was weaving about and falling over and we hadn't realised what had happened so took her to the emergency vet (Sunday night of a bank holiday - VERY expensive  ph34r) who couldn't find anything wrong (apart from her falling over) so gave her an antibiotic injection (standard procedure with any undiagnosed animal at that particular vet  >:() and sent us home. Obviously we realised what had happened when she sobered up.

@c19unn it's probably the fact the boy leant over the gate of his garden and touched the dog (perhaps surprised it?) that made the staffie bite, not the beer! Horrible woman saying the dog should be destroyed when it was in its own garden  >:D

Smudge is T Total - but that is cos I am - half a mug of warm T or Ovaltine is a different matter tho  ph34r

ALTHOUGH   a person......    ;)


I would never give my dog alcohol or leave it were she could get at it,I wouldn't leave a glass of something on the floor if their was a crawling baby or toddler around  :huh: same for my dog.
People laugh at me because I'm different, but I laugh at them because they are all the same.
