Tetrahydrocannabinol or THC is the main cannabinoid that is mainly responsible for the drug’s influence on the brain. This allows THC to potentially alter a person's memory, learning, attention, decision-making, coordination, emotion and reaction time, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
According to the American Kennel Club, dogs can have more dramatic response to ingesting THC than humans.
