Here's why the argument for medical cannabis is won and no law, govt or agency can stop it. Maybe Berkeley Bio will cover this base someday. MMJ is coming for pets.
Americans love their "companion pets," like dogs and cats, more than they love their neighbors and sometimes, though not openly admitted, more than they love their friends, relatives and spouses. 62% of all US households (73 mil) own a pet; 31% of households have cats; 37% of households have dogs. Americans spend an estimated $53 billion caring for their pets which include est. 70mil dogs and 74mil cats. Politicians and used car salesmen know that going against millions and millions of pet owners who love their pets is like stepping on the third raid with a bare foot. If pet owners want MMJ, they will get it.

Rowyn Capers’ dog, “Luna,” was suffering from late-stage lymphoma and was put on an intense schedule of chemotherapy. The treatments came with devastating side effects.
“Her lymph nodes were like golf balls and she was coughing constantly and she couldn’t breath and I just thought it’s time to say goodbye,” Capers said.
Capers gave Luna medical marijuana to help ease her suffering.
“The first time I dosed her I was so scared. We were looking at her all night,” Capers said, “The more I increased her cannabis dose the less side effects that she had. The vomiting stopped, the diarrhea stopped.”
The cannabis came in the form of a concentrated oil in a capsule. Capers said the results have been remarkable.
“When you see them enjoying life and feeling better and not being sick you know you’ve hit something,” she said.
Certified animal behaviorist Darlene Arden is a strong advocate for the use of medical marijuana on pets. She called cannabis a “legitimate medication.”
“I think we can now see marijuana for exactly what it is and what it can do. Not a street drug but a legitimate medication to be used under proper supervision,” she s
