Oscar the LSD Dog (RIP) didn’t have LSD in his system, after all

Or incense. Or peppermints.

When Oscar the Dog was put down early this month after being hit by a car whilst being chased through the streets of Snellville by his naked, druggie owners who’d supposedly fed him LSD, it gave me a great deal of comfort to imagine that his final memories were of little dancing Grateful Dead bears and rainbow painted moonbeams (aaaand I’ve obviously never done acid).

Turns out Oscar’s owners Nicholas Modrich and Jamie Hughes (who you can getta load of here) didn’t give him LSD after all.

From WSBTV:
According to a police report, the couple admitted to taking the drug. But the report said they told the officer they had also given acid to their dog.

The couple told Channel 2 they never fed the dog LSD.

“I guess the story got twisted because somebody said we fed him LSD. We never did that. We were just concerned about where our dog was,” Hughes said.

Necropsy results have come back, confirming that was indeed the case.

Great. So, Oscar just died a regular, sad, hit-by-a-car death. At least he lives on as Oscar the LSD Dog in our hearts.
