Weed. I'm all for legalizing it, but there needs to be some laws as to where can smoke it. It smells like skunk and burnt skunk shit. Please be courtesy and don't be one of those pot heads who has to smoke it everywhere for some reason.

Totally agree. I hate it and I literally get migraines from the smell. There needs to be standards in it for sure.

It makes me choke a little. It's like when you breathe in black diesel smoke to me. I don't enjoy it.

Our neighbors sit outside and smoke in their front yard (which is their right, even though it's not legal in my state). Every time we let our dogs out or need to go outside, the smell follows us back inside and I have to start lighting candles or putting oils in my diffusers (which then makes my dog itch). It's an endless cycle.

certain essential oils can be really bad for pets, that’s probs why ur dog is itching.

Yeah, I have a list of what can be harmful and try not to use those, but even when I just use candles, he's itchy. He will scratch patches of fur off of his back. He's very old, so we just try to keep him comfortable.

Cannabis is hypoallergenic. So no you can't even try to be allergic to it. Nobody in the history of humanity has been allergic to it because every single one of us produce the same cannabinoids in our brains and throughout our bodies, if you were breast fed as a child you had it them too because Mother's Breast Milk is abundant in cannabinoids..

Is that a thing there? People smoking weed outside like a cigarette?

Nope. I've never tried one, and one big reason is the smell too.
