What Science Says About CBD for Your Dog

So, how does CBD affect dogs? And how much of the information out there is actually true?

Well, much of what we know about CBD and dogs is purely anecdotal, which means it can’t altogether be trusted. Unfortunately, according this study in Toxicology Communications (2018), there are still some looming gaps in scientific knowledge about CBD and pets.

Right now we know that there are few, if any side effects of CBD in dogs, which is promising. If your dog is taking other medications or experiencing liver problems, CBD may not be a good option for your pup.

And some dogs have shown signs of digestive problems after taking CBD, like diarrhea or vomiting. So always use caution and pay very close attention to your dog’s reactions.

On the flip side, Science has also shown that there might be benefits of CBD for dogs.

Right now, research is suggesting that CBD holds potential for treating epilepsy in dogs as well as arthritis symptoms.

These studies are still preliminary, but they pave the way for more research and possibilities surrounding CBD.

Can I Give my Dog Human CBD Oil?

CBD Oil for dogs, CBD for pets, CBD for dogs

This is a common question that is well worth asking.

Be aware that the answer is an unequivocal NO.

Do not give your dog human CBD oil. Why? Human CBD oil may contain traces of THC, which is toxic for your dog.

THC is toxic for dogs. 

Human CBD oil can also contain other ingredients that are toxic for pets, like xylitol and grapeseed oil. So, when shopping for CBD oil for your pet, it’s important to be extra careful.

Otherwise, you might be making an emergency visit to the Vet.

The last thing you want to do is give your best pal something that will make him or her sick.

What to Look for in CBD Pet Products

Look for veterinary-safe CBD products, that conduct third party testing.

Also, look for a seal from the National Animal Supplement Council (NASC). And just to be sure, check out the list of ingredients and cannabinoid composition.

You’ll want to verify that it only contains cannabidiol, or CBD, and nothing else that might be harmful for your dog. 

When in doubt? Ask the Vet!
