Rutter, clinical assistant professor at A&M, says that pet cocktails, like non-alcoholic beer for dogs and catnip-infused \u201cwine\u201d for cats \u2013 is about human novelty more than anything, as pets don\u2019t feel they are missing anything without their own mocktails. These beverages are probably harmless fun for both people and their pets, although any new food or beverage should be introduced in moderation to prevent GI upset, she says.<\/p>\n However, people should be careful not to assume that real human beer or any alcoholic beverage is OK to give to dogs. It isn\u2019t, says Dr. Rutter.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is not uncommon for people to give a dog or even a horse a sip of beer. Both of those species tend to appreciate beer the same way people do,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s not a good idea, and I don\u2019t recommend it. Most domestic species don\u2019t appreciate the taste of wine or spirits, but it is not uncommon for intentional or accidental exposure to occur.\u201d<\/p>\n There is no safe amount of alcohol to share with your furry friend; they have a lower tolerance for ethanol, says Dr. Rutter.<\/p>\n Intoxication causes the same types of symptoms as in humans, including vomiting, diarrhea, incoordination and a coma. Some animals require mechanical ventilation and intensive care after alcohol exposure, which for dogs tends to happen via human alcoholic beverages, uncooked bread dough and rotten fruit; along with things like mouthwashes, medications, paints and fuel substitutes. The smaller your dog, the less alcohol he can tolerate \u2013 and the higher the proof of the alcoholic beverage, the more dangerous it is, she says.<\/p>\n If your dog ingests more than an accidental sip or two of an alcoholic beverage, Dr Rutter recommends calling your veterinarian or animal poison control center<\/a> for guidance.<\/p>\n If you want to enjoy a safe version of drinking with your dog, you can probably go ahead and have fun, Dr. Rutter says. Just don\u2019t depend on it too much or get carried away.<\/p>\n \u201cThese products purchased and given to pets in moderation as a novelty are probably fine,\u201d she said. \u201cBut in the same way that we find constructive and safe ways to enjoy our quality time with children without putting them at risk, I think we can do the same with our animals – with or without faux adult beverages.\u201d<\/p>\n Busch \u2013 which, inspired by its Foster a Dog program, debuted Dog Brew in August of 2020 and sold out its first supply in 24 hours – is donating $1 for every case of Dog Brew purchased to Best Friends Animal Society, up to $50,000, Daniel says.<\/p>\n Featured Image: Anheuser-Busch<\/em><\/p>\n Read Next: <\/strong>Why Dog Parents Are Trying Water Enhancers<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n The post Can Dogs Drink Beer?<\/a> by Kellie B.
