I like to smoke with friends but some of them blow the smoke at their dog and get him high too, its funny and he seems to like it but is it bad?

The smoke is as bad for a dog as it is for you. IMO it's not really that bad, but it isn't good either.
The healthier alternative for a dog is to blow it in their ear rather than them inhaling it.

If he doesn't like it (which is understandable as a big cloud of smoke being blown at you is probably pretty scary to a dog), then they shouldn't do it. I've known some dogs to be fine with it, and happily sit there and get a bit stoned. I don't think there are any health risks to him inhaling a bit of diluted pot smoke every once in a while.

The thing that makes it "bad" for a dog at all is the same thing that makes it bad for us humans. The smoke going into your lungs. If you blow the smoke into their ears instead of blowing it at them so they breathe it in you avoid that.
Dogs have receptors in their ears that will absorb the thc [even better than if they were to inhale it if I remember correctly.]

the big issue with this is the mental repercussions, more than the impact on their lungs. you're changing their mental state, and they have no say in it, really. they cannot sit back and say "well fuck i'm high, ain't i?" and carry on. they have to wait it out. if they get anxious, they have to deal with it alone.

and that's why i don't do that shit.
