CBD oil can be used regularly, for dogs and cats that are naturally nervous. It can also be used situationally for temporary relief from anxiety-inducing situations: a new home, travel, bringing home new pets, fireworks, etc. While early research does suggest that CBD (cannabidiol) may help your pets with anxiety, as well as chronic pain and seizures, studies are still ongoing. It’s still too early to confirm CBD’s benefits, or potential side effects. The FDA has not approved any medications for animals that contain CBD. And it is important to first discuss CBD with your veterinarian.

Will CBD get my pet high?

Because CBD is a non-intoxicating component from industrial hemp, which legally must have less than 0.3 percent of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), there’s no “high” or euphoric effect as a result of using hemp-derived CBD.

CBD Safety

Pure cannabidiol appears to be safe and well tolerated by animals. A 2018 study by Frontiers in Veterinary Science reported increased benefits in dogs with arthritic conditions. This study did “note an increase in alkaline phosphatase enzyme activity in dogs’ livers during CBD treatment, but owners reported no side effects.”

It must be stated again, studies are ongoing, and it’s still too early to confirm the potential benefits, and side effects, of CBD for our furry friends.

IMPORTANT: One thing that is known, THC can be toxic in high amounts for dogs and cats and may cause severe adverse reactions. To avoid these side effects, look for THC-free CBD like cbdMD’s broad spectrum CBD.

“The premium hemp extracts in broad spectrum CBD for pets offers the same benefits to animals as it does to humans. CBD works by interacting with the endocannabinoid system that’s present in both people and pets. Because of this similarity in physiology, both can be positively affected by CBD in similar ways. Pets in need of wellness support, extra calm, or a daily boost to their health may benefit from CBD’s powerful properties that promote balance throughout the body,” cbdMD.

How to Give Your Dog or Cat CBD

CBD intake varies between different species, sizes, and shapes. We advise starting with the lowest indicated measurement and closely monitoring your pet’s progress.

When starting a CBD regimen, it’s generally suggested to maintain a steady routine for at least 30 days to achieve optimal wellness. If you don’t see desired results after the initial 30 days, gradually increase the daily amount given.

cbdMD use the same Superior Broad Spectrum CBD formula that’s found in their high-quality human products, combined with the flavors and textures that your cat or dog will love. The range of strengths and concentrations lets you tailor your CBD for pet program to the size and needs of your animal companion.

CBD For Pets FAQs

DO CBDMD’S PET PRODUCTS CONTAIN FULL OR BROAD SPECTRUM CBD?
All of their CBD products for pets contain the same Superior Broad Spectrum CBD formula as their products for people. So, all of their veterinarian-formulated CBD for pets is crafted with high quality hemp extracts and plant terpenes from USA grown hemp then rigorously tested to be THC-free* in ISO-certified labs for purity.

CAN CBD FOR PETS BE TAKEN WITH OTHER MEDICATIONS?
While CBD for pets is safe, it may potentially react with some medications and reduce their effectiveness. Research into CBD interaction with over-the-counter and prescription medication is ongoing. Please talk to your veterinarian with any questions about adding CBD to your pet’s daily wellness regimen and if there is any potential for interaction with their current medications.

WHAT DOES CBD FOR PETS DO?
The premium hemp extracts in CBD for pets offers the same benefits to animals as it does to humans. CBD works by interacting with the endocannabinoid system that’s present in both people and pets. Because of this similarity in physiology, both can be positively affected by CBD in similar ways. Pets in need of wellness support, extra calm, or a daily boost to their health may benefit from CBD’s powerful properties that promote balance throughout the body.

WHY DOES CBD FOR PETS COME IN DIFFERENT CONCENTRATIONS?
CBD oil tinctures and hard chews for pets come in several different CBD concentration options. Each of cbdMD’s veterinarian-formulated products is clearly labeled with specific serving suggestions based on the concentration of CBD in each product and your pet’s weight. Every pet is different, and it’s important to serve them the proper amount for best results. We recommend choosing the miligram (mg) option that best fits your dog or cat and following the suggested serving directions for each individual product.

WILL CBD MAKE MY PET FEEL “HIGH”?
No, CBD will not make your pet feel “high”. CBD, or cannabidiol, and other hemp extracts are non-psychoactive cannabinoids that do not produce the “high” feeling commonly associated with marijuana and the more well known cannabinoid, THC. The products from cbdMD are derived from USA grown industrial hemp that is carefully cultivated to contain less than 0.3% THC. Additionally, we adhere to GMP manufacturing standards to ensure that our products contain non-detectable levels of THC, then we thoroughly test each batch in third-party ISO-certified labs to guarantee purity and quality.

While studies regarding CBD for both humans and pets remain ongoing, whether a veterinarian will recommend CBD for your pets is largely up to their discretion and personal understanding of the products. We strongly recommend consulting your pet’s primary healthcare provider with any questions regarding starting a CBD routine or maintaining a daily CBD regimen for your dog or cat.
