CBD Success Guide For Anxious Dogs With Digestive Challenges
Dr. Dench's Advice On Helping Your Dog With Digestive Challenges
Hello Dog Parent,
Don't panic - take a deep breath. If your dog is having digestive challenges from using CBD Happy-Furever - you're not alone!
The simple and quick fix is to adjust your dosage to a much lower amount. As with anything new, your dog's digestive systems need time to adjust, and the sudden introduction of oil may be the reason for any adverse reaction.
To solve this easily - (1) Reduce your dosage - you can even start with an unnoticeable amount, and increasing it slowly with time. (2) Mix with food / administer only after meals - this helps them to digest better. The last option (3) Rub Into Their Ears - apply to the soft skin of their inner ear. This is the least bioavailable option and will also take the longest to reach the bloodstream, but it's still a viable method.
You will only start to see the benefits if their body is absorbing the contents. Keep in mind that CBD Happy-Furever has the ability to also improve your dog's gut health by reducing inflammation.
Dogs having digestive upsets when first introducing any types of oils/supplements/CBD are actually are lot more common than you think - and there's nothing to fear.
Having worked with hundreds of dog parents, I've found a conclusive trend that anxious dogs often have weaker digestive systems, which may explain the issue you are facing...
Let me explain why (without getting too technical)... So read on!
The Connection Between Anxiety & Digestive Health
In dogs, stress and anxiety can disrupt the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, leading to various issues like diarrhea, constipation, and other digestive problems.
The gut-brain axis, which is a bidirectional communication system between the central nervous system and the enteric nervous system of the GI tract, plays a crucial role in this process.
When a dog is stressed or anxious, its body releases stress hormones, which can alter the motility of the GI tract, impact blood flow to the digestive organs, and affect the balance of microbiota in the gut.
These changes can lead to inflammation and dysbiosis, which is an imbalance in the gut microbiome. Dysbiosis can contribute to the development of various GI disorders and may also impact the dog's overall health and immune system.
It's also worth noting that the gut microbiome plays a crucial role in a dog's mental health. There is emerging evidence to suggest that an imbalance in gut bacteria can contribute to anxiety and stress-related behaviors in dogs.
This is why it's so important to support a dog’s gut health and mitigate the effects of stress and anxiety, it's essential to provide a balanced and nutritious diet, ensure they get regular exercise, provide mental stimulation, and create a stable and stress-free living environment.
You deciding to use Happy-Furever can help massively contribute to creating a stress-free living experience for them.
You can see why this is so important to address right now, with us, instead of giving up and just kicking the can down the road...
In my clinical practice, I have realized that 'all roads lead to the gut'. Dogs with poor gut health often have various health issues and problems. And they compound very quickly.
How CBD Happy-Furever Helps With Improved Gut Function
Full-spectrum CBD oil contains a wide range of cannabinoids, including trace amounts of THC (the psychoactive component in marijuana), as well as other beneficial compounds like terpenes and flavonoids.
It is believed that these compounds work together synergistically, enhancing the therapeutic effects of each other in what is known as the "entourage effect."
Below are some ways in which full-spectrum CBD oil might help promote gut function in dogs:
1. Anti-inflammatory Properties: CBD is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, which could help reduce inflammation in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This is critically important in promoting your dog's digestive function. This can be beneficial for dogs with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or other inflammatory conditions of the gut.
2. Pain Relief: CBD has analgesic properties, which can help alleviate pain associated with various GI disorders.
3. Anti-nausea: Some studies have suggested that CBD may help reduce nausea and vomiting, which can be beneficial for dogs experiencing these symptoms due to GI issues.
4. Appetite Stimulation: CBD has been reported to stimulate appetite in some cases, which can be helpful for dogs that are reluctant to eat due to GI distress or other health issues.
5. Stress and Anxiety Reduction: It's exactly because of the relationship between the gut and brain; using CBD helps to reduce stress and anxiety, which in turn has a positive effect on gut health. Promoting a virtuous cycle of healing.
6. Promoting Homeostasis: CBD is known to interact with the endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in maintaining balance in various bodily functions, including digestion.
Understanding Why Digestive Upsets May Happen & How To Prevent It
Now, let's dig deeper into why your dog might experience digestive upsets. It could be one of the following reasons:
1. Sensitive Stomach: Just like humans, some dogs (especially anxious ones) have sensitive stomachs and can react adversely to new supplements or medications, including CBD oil.
2. Dosage Issues: Giving a dog too much CBD oil can lead to side effects, including digestive upset. This is why, you simply just need to start with a low dose and gradually increase it with time while monitoring your dog's response. Feel free to use it with meals or after meal times to help with digestion.
3. MCT Carrier Oil: Happy-Furever CBD oil uses the highest quality medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil to help with absorption, however - some dogs may be sensitive to carrier oils. This is why you need to start on a low dosage and increase with time.
4. Interaction with Other Medications: Some dog owners make the mistake of mixing CBD oil with their dog's medication. While there are no known interactions, we DO NOT recommend you do this.
If your dog is having digestive upsets, it also means that the CBD is not entering their bloodstream, and hence you might not be seeing results. It's hence critically important that you work a way to introduce this slowly to your dog.
A low dosage that is being absorbed by their body is better than using a high dosage that's being passed out!
Final Thoughts - What's Next?
I hope through this detailed breakdown, you understand why your dog is reacting a certain way.
We know it can be a hassle to deal with this, but it's so crucial that you find ways to help your pup. It'd be a pity to rob them of the relief and breakthrough they so desire just because their digestive systems can't keep up with new demands!
So, if your dog is having digestive challenges, remember:
- (1) Reduce your dosage - you can start with an unnoticeable amount and increase it with time.
- (2) Mix with food / administer only after meals - this helps them to digest better.
In the very rare case that your dog is still having digestive issues even after these suggestions, it might be an issue of an uncovered health problem, which should be looked into deeper!
To your success,

Frequently Asked Questions
CBD, or cannabidiol, is a compound found in cannabis plants. Happy-Furever's Full-Spectrum CBD, is a formulation that contains not just CBD but also a range of other cannabinoids, terpenes, and phytochemicals found in the cannabis plant.
The Entourage Effect:
- Happy-Furever’s Full-Spectrum CBD benefits dogs through something known as the "entourage effect."
- This effect suggests that CBD, when combined with other cannabis compounds, works more effectively than it would on its own. The various components of the cannabis plant work in synergy to enhance the therapeutic effects of each other.
- In other words, the full spectrum of cannabinoids, including a safe level of THC (below 0.3%), terpenes, and other cannabis constituents, work together to bolster the beneficial effects on your dog's health.
Dog’s Endocannabinoid System:
- Dogs, like humans, have an endocannabinoid system (ECS). This complex network of receptors (CB1 and CB2 receptors) and endogenous chemicals is responsible for maintaining balance and healthy functioning within the body.
- It regulates and influences a variety of physiological processes including mood, appetite, pain sensation, and the immune system response.
How CBD Benefits Dogs:
- When CBD is introduced to a dog’s body, it interacts with the ECS, specifically the cannabinoid receptors. CBD influences them indirectly and increases the levels of endocannabinoids in the body. This can lead to various health benefits, such as:
- Reducing Anxiety: CBD has been shown to help reduce anxiety in dogs, which can be beneficial in various stressful situations like thunderstorms, fireworks, or separation from owners.
- Pain Relief: It can offer pain relief, particularly in cases of inflammation, arthritis, or neuropathy.
- Anti-inflammatory Properties: CBD may help in reducing inflammation throughout the body, which is especially beneficial for dogs with inflammatory conditions.
- Supporting Neurological Health: CBD is also believed to provide neuroprotective effects, which can help senior dogs with cognitive dysfunction syndrome (similar to Alzheimer’s in humans) or help in managing seizures.
- Boosting Overall Wellness: By promoting homeostasis, CBD can generally enhance the overall well-being of dogs, supporting healthier joints, skin, and fur.
It's important to note that while Full-Spectrum CBD has potential benefits, it should be used responsibly and always start at a lower dosage before increasing with time, as dogs may be sensitive to oils in general. Always ensure the CBD product is of high quality and specifically formulated for pets to avoid harmful additives and ensure proper dosage (just like Happy-Furever, ensure there's a Certificate of Analysis).
(1) Apply directly on dog food - drop it on their food and mix it well.
- Recommended for picky dogs with sensitive digestive systems.
- Least bioavailability.
- 45 - 90 minutes to take effect.*
(2) You can apply directly on the gums/mouth after food.
- Recommended for highest bioavailability & effectiveness.
- 20 - 60 minutes to take effect.
(3) Apply directly onto treat - trick or treat?
- The next most bioavailable option.
- 45 - 90 minutes to take effect.
*Important note: dogs may be sensitive to oils in general, always start at a low dosage, and slowly increase with time.
If you are considering adding CBD Happy-Furever™ to your dog's health regimen and they are currently on medication, while it's safe to do so, here are some considerations to keep in mind!
Complementary Use:
- CBD is not a prescription medication; it is a supplement. Many pet owners have found it beneficial to use CBD Happy-Furever™ alongside their dog’s existing medications.
- It is crucial, however, to understand that CBD should not be used as a substitute for prescribed medications unless specifically directed by a veterinarian. With that being said, you can undoubtedly use CBD to wean off the use of certain medications like anxiety medication or NSAIDs (painkillers/anti-inflammatory medication).
Veterinary Guidance:
- Not all veterinarians may be fully aware of the potential benefits of CBD as vets are not allowed to prescribe CBD Oil as it's not considered a prescription drug, and many vets would rather just adopt a 'do no harm' approach to protect their patients and their practice.
- Therefore, when discussing CBD with your vet, it's helpful to come from a place of seeking guidance rather than expecting them to advocate for its use.
- This approach allows you to take responsibility for the choice while seeking their professional insight on how to do so safely.
CBD and Medication Interactions:
- Understanding the interaction of CBD with other medications is crucial. CBD is a known competitive inhibitor of the cytochrome P450 enzyme system in the liver, which metabolizes many pharmaceuticals.
- This means that if your dog is on medication, CBD could lead to the effect of 'potentiation', where the drugs become more effective, stronger, or last longer than intended.
- This can be beneficial as it allows for lower dosages, reduced side-effects and enhanced therapeutic outcomes due to the synergistic effects of CBD and medications.
Administration and Dosage:
- Always administer CBD separately from your dog's medications to avoid immediate interactions.
- This means giving them at different times of the day.
- Also, never consider CBD a complete replacement for traditional treatments, especially in urgent situations that require medical intervention.
To sum up, while CBD Happy-Furever™ can be a valuable addition to your dog's wellness routine, it is important to keep these considerations in mind, and should you want to approach your vet, always approach with the frame of taking responsibility so that they feel safe to advise you on how to proceed.
We have had many breakthroughs and case studies of dog owners using CBD Happy-Furever™ with their sick and ailing dogs that are on medication, and the transformations are amazing!
Well, the good news is that our oils have a natural bacon flavor to help dogs better enjoy the product. But dogs in general can be averse to oils and CBD, and it's totally normal!
So, in the rare event that they do not like it… Simply mix it with their meals or condition them to enjoy the dosage by rewarding them with a high-value treat after using the oils orally.
This way, they can associate the experience as a positive one. It’s 100% possible to administer the oil to your dogs, no matter how picky they are. It’s only a matter of training and conditioning. As dog parents, it's essential to understand that our dogs behave like young children and do not have the cognitive abilities to understand what's good for them.
You know; they hate going to the vet, eating medication, brushing their teeth, or doing any sort of grooming… But we all know how important this is to their health and well-being… You don't stop doing these activities just because they don't like it, right? And you know very well that they would devour an entire jar of peanut butter if they had the chance, even if they were to fall terribly ill…
You see, if your vet prescribed your dog life-changing medicine, you would do whatever it takes to get it into their system. That's the approach you should have with Happy-Furever™ if your dog is picky!
The good news is that with a bit of patience, training, and a 'delicious bribe', you can condition your dogs adapt to the new routine of using CBD Oil. If your dog has a sensitive digestive system, you can also mix it with their food.
What if they are not eating their food? You can use the gentle starvation method - this involves waiting until your dog is hungry enough to not be choosy, if they understand that they can't get away with not eating it, their hunger instincts will eventually cave into any discomfort. Sometimes dogs are afraid of new things, so don't be afraid to train and condition them to adapt!
Hundreds of thousands of dog parents have done it, you can too!
The benefits of using the oil far outweigh the temporary discomfort or aversion (if any) that they may face.
Of course, for non-picky dogs that devour anything and everything - this isn't really a problem! Remember - the hallmark of a successful dog owner is the ability to guide and train their dogs, don't coddle them!
This is a common misconception and sometimes people wonder if CBD can cause a high or if its legal. The wonderful news is when CBD is derived from hemp, it cannot cause a high, and it is legal in the United States under the 2018 Farm Bill Act and in over 40 countries worldwide.
Historical books record the use of CBD in advanced ancient civilisations, and even in Scandinavian tradition. It's only in recent years did scientific advancement help us rediscover the power of this miracle plant! Industrial Hemp Plants contain less than 0.3% THC which is what allows it to be classified as a legal substance in the United States.
Our CBD products are NOT derived from marijuana plants.
While hemp and marijuana are technically the same species of plant, cannabis Sativa, and you can harvest CBD from marijuana, hemp and marijuana have differing phytochemical makeups. What distinguishes the two plants are their CBD and THC content. Hemp has a high CBD content and must have no more than 0.3% THC. Any plant over 0.3% THC is considered a marijuana plant in the United States.
All Paw Origins' CBD products are hemp-derived, containing high levels of CBD, a diverse cannabinoid, and terpene profile with under 0.3% THC.
As the stigma surrounding hemp-derived CBD continues to lessen, there’s no reason not to try CBD for your dog. However, we understand why some are still skeptical because in many ways CBD sounds too good to be true. So, we'll put your mind at ease, here’s why you’d be making the right choice:
Reputable health organizations all over the world including the World Health Organization (WHO) have deemed CBD a ‘safe & effective’ health alternative for both humans and animals. It's well-tolerated even in high doses, and it has very mild side effects.
Both Hemp and Marijuana are species of cannabis plants, and while they have the same cannabinoids and terpenes, the percentages and ratios differ immensely.
In particular, Hemp contains very low amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), where Marijuana contains higher percentages. High levels of THC results in the euphoria associated with marijuana.
Marijuana has approximately 20-30 % THC vs. industrial hemp 0.01-0.3% THC indicating marijuana has one hundred to a thousand times more tetrahydrocannabinol than hemp, a significant difference.
Happy-Furever only uses the highest quality CBD extracted using an industry-leading CO2 Extraction Process, making sure that the raw crops are not overheated or overprocessed, keeping the plant's diverse array of cannabinoids available. Watch as your dogs experience the positive benefits within days.
Many of our customers that have experienced the biggest, fastest results go with the 6-bottle option, as it comes with the free gifts and it also allows them to use the oil on their dogs for a long time. The key here is you want your dogs exposed to the benefits of CBD Happy-Furever for a prolonged period of time.
While we believe you can still experience positive results with 1-3 bottle options, we know dog parents who are determined to make a change in their dog's lives and reclaim their dog's health and energy always go with the 3 or 6 bottle option because it saves them the most money, and it ensures they never miss a single day of Happy-Furever's powerful support.
Imagine for less than a cup of coffee per day, you get to unwind the clock and let your dogs experience the kind of energy, vitality, and happiness they used to back when they were puppies.

We also have one of the best direct-to-consumer pricing programs & 180-day Triple Moneyback Guarantee. You can read more about this in the next FAQs (below).
We have a recommended dosage schedule based on Veterinarian's advice This information can be found on the back of all our product's packaging. Different dogs (of different weight and sizes) would require different dosages.
The rule of thumb for our bottles is to use 0.25ml per 10lbs of body weight, or 0.025ml per 1lbs of body weight. OR 0.5mg of CBD per 1lb of body weight.
So, if you're using the oil - to find your unique dosage, you can simply multiply 0.025ml with your dog's body weight.
- For example, if my dog weighs 62lbs, I would simply take 62 x 0.025ml = 1.55ml
As you can see, the recommended dosage would be ~ 1.55ml. However, you can start with half the dosage and slowly increase your way to the point where your dog finds relief.
So, if you're using the chews - bear in mind each chew has 25mg of CBD, so in this case based on your dog's body weight of 62lbs.
- Simply take 0.5mg x 62 = 31mg of CBD
- Which means your dog can take 1.2 ~ 1.5 chews.
- Under 25 lbs, use between 0.25ml. to 1ml per day.
- 25 - 75 lbs, use between 1ml. to 2ml per day.
- Over 75 lbs, use between 2ml. to 3ml. per day.
Some dogs find relief with a lower dose, and some might need a higher dose. Every dog is unique, and there's no hard rule. This rule of thumb is here to give you a framework.
Dosing is more of an art not a science. There's no hard rule on the exact amount. Different dogs react differently, but it's always best practice to start off at a lower dosage and adjust accordingly. Give your dog's body to adapt. If your dog is having digestive upsets, it's likely because you're giving them too much, too soon.
The response time to CBD Happy-Furever™ can indeed differ from one dog to another, as it is a natural supplement that dogs may need time to adapt to. Many dog parents have observed noticeable positive changes in their pets' behavior and well-being within just a few days of starting the supplement. Common early signs of the supplement taking effect include better sleep, a calmer demeanor, and an increased appetite—all indicators of a content and healthy dog.
As the weeks go by, further enhancements in your dog's health may become evident. You may notice a shinier coat, a reduction in bodily pains, and an increase in energy, evident from bursts of playful excitement like the "zoomies" during fetch.
It's crucial to acknowledge that, like humans, some dogs may require a longer period to fully benefit from natural supplements like CBD oil. Patience is key, and during this time, it's also important to continue reinforcing good behavior.
When CBD helps to bring your dog to a more tranquil state, it's an opportune moment to introduce new habits and work on phasing out any undesirable behaviors. Remember, while CBD can support your dog's well-being, it is not a substitute for consistent training and conditioning.
Keep an eye out for signs of improvement; sometimes, they may not be immediately obvious. Documenting your dog's journey with videos and photos can help you recognize progress that you might otherwise overlook.
Furthermore, improvements might be taking place internally, such as enhanced immune function or reduced inflammation, which aren't always visible. The absence of health issues can often be a silent testament to the efficacy of the supplement, reflecting your dog's overall health and vitality. So, while some benefits of CBD are seen, others are felt—a healthy dog is a happy dog, inside and out.
Absolutely not! It's not possible for dogs to get 'high' off our CBD as they contain less than 0.3% THC, which won't cause any intoxicating effects. However, your pup might seem a lot more relaxed, and might be sleeping more - which is a healthy sign! Keep in mind that young puppies and senior dogs should be sleeping for up to 18-20 hours of their day, while adult dogs sleep approximately 16 hours.
The lack of quality sleep can affect their health and anxiety in many ways.
CBD can make older pooches act ‘puppy-like’ and nervous young pups feel calm. The ingredients that makeup hemp contribute to a balanced mood, resulting in a sense of relaxation for your pet.
Research into CBD's effects on canine cognitive dysfunction is still in the early stages, but there is some evidence to suggest it may be beneficial. For instance, a study published in the Journal of Neuroscience found that cannabinoids could have neuroprotective effects, which means they may help protect brain cells from damage. This is a promising area of research for conditions like cognitive decline.
Specifically, regarding cognitive dysfunction in dogs, which is similar to dementia in humans, there is anecdotal evidence and some preliminary scientific backing that CBD may help mitigate some symptoms. This could be due to its anti-inflammatory properties, which may reduce brain inflammation, a contributing factor to cognitive decline, and its potential to support the endocannabinoid system, which plays a part in maintaining cognitive function.
Moreover, the carrier oil in CBD products can also contribute to cognitive health. Many CBD oils, including those for dogs, use MCT (Medium-Chain Triglyceride) oil as a carrier. MCT oil, often derived from coconut oil, has been studied for its potential cognitive benefits.
For example, a study in the "Journal of Alzheimer's Disease" showed that MCTs could provide an alternative energy source for brain cells that have lost the ability to use glucose efficiently, a common issue in aging brains and cognitive decline.
MCT oil is broken down into ketones, which are an alternative energy source for the brain and may help improve brain function in dogs with cognitive dysfunction. This is why MCT oil is often recommended for dogs with signs of cognitive decline, as it may help to support brain health and cognitive function.
If your dog suffers from cognitive dysfunction or if you're seeing signs of cognitive decline due to old age, we would highly recommend that you get them started on Happy-Furever™.
CBD Happy-Furever™ could potentially offer supportive benefits for dogs dealing with cancer, though it's important to understand that research is ongoing.
Evidence points to CBD's anti-inflammatory properties, which may help alleviate pain and inflammation often experienced by dogs with cancer. Its analgesic effects could make it a complementary option for pain management, potentially improving the quality of life for canine patients.
Additionally, the anti-anxiety and anti-nausea properties of CBD can be particularly beneficial, helping to reduce the stress and discomfort associated with rigorous cancer treatments such as chemotherapy. These treatments, while targeting cancer cells, can also lead to a reduced appetite and increased anxiety in pets, and CBD may help to mitigate these side effects, making the treatment process more tolerable.
Moreover, there are studies indicating that CBD might possess antitumor properties. Some laboratory and animal studies have suggested that CBD could inhibit the growth and proliferation of certain cancer cell lines. Although these findings are preliminary and more research is needed to establish a direct link between CBD and cancer cell eradication, they are promising and suggest a potential role for CBD in cancer therapy in the future.
Should you like to incorporate this treatment, and you'd like your vet's opinion - it's important to approach your vet from a place of seeking guidance rather than expecting them to advocate for its use. This approach allows you to take responsibility for the choice while seeking their professional insight on how to do so safely.
Not all veterinarians may be fully aware of the potential benefits of CBD as vets are not allowed to prescribe CBD Oil as it's not considered a prescription drug, and many vets would rather just adopt a 'do no harm' approach to protect their practice.
When it comes to using CBD Happy-Furever™ for dogs with seizures, there's some promise and hope here. The research on CBD for seizures in dogs is emerging, and there are indications that CBD may help manage seizure activity in some dogs.
In humans, the most compelling evidence of CBD's efficacy in treating seizures comes from its use in treating certain forms of epilepsy, such as Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Based on this human evidence, researchers are investigating CBD's potential anticonvulsant properties in animals.
A study published in the journal "Pet Behaviour Science" in 2019 observed that CBD could reduce the frequency of seizures in dogs with epilepsy when used in addition to standard antiepileptic treatment. It’s thought that CBD interacts with receptors in the brain that can influence neurological activity and potentially reduce the number and severity of seizures.
However, it is essential that dog owners do not think of CBD as a complete replacement for their dog's prescribed medication / medical intervention. If a dog is currently being treated for seizures, getting professional advice could be helpful.
Should you like to incorporate this treatment, and you'd like your vet's opinion - it's important to approach your vet from a place of seeking guidance rather than expecting them to advocate for its use.

CBD Happy-Furever™ may be helpful for dogs experiencing pain and joint problems. The anti-inflammatory properties of CBD are of particular interest in the treatment of conditions like arthritis, which is a common cause of pain and joint issues in dogs.
Research suggests that CBD can help reduce inflammation and alleviate pain, which can lead to improved mobility and a better quality of life for dogs with joint problems. A study published in the Journal of Pain in 2020 found that CBD could reduce pain and increase mobility in dogs with osteoarthritis when given twice daily.
Moreover, the analgesic properties of CBD can contribute to its pain management potential. By interacting with the endocannabinoid system in dogs, which plays a role in regulating pain, CBD may help dampen pain signals, providing relief from chronic pain and discomfort.
CBD Happy-Furever™ could be a supportive measure for managing pain and joint issues in dogs, potentially offering them a non-pharmaceutical option to improve their comfort and mobility.
CBD is gaining attention as an alternative to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for pain management in dogs, particularly for chronic conditions such as arthritis.
Here’s how CBD may offer benefits in this context:
1. Pain Relief and Anti-Inflammatory Properties: CBD has shown potential for its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. This can be beneficial for managing chronic pain and inflammation without the side effects that can be associated with long-term NSAID use.
2. Reduced Side Effects: NSAIDs can cause gastrointestinal, kidney, or liver issues, particularly with long-term use. It can also create havoc in a dog's digestive system, causing appetite problems and more... On the other hand, CBD is considered to have a more favorable side-effect profile - helping strengthen these very organs and improving appetite which are all signs of vitality, making it a more attractive option for long-term management of chronic pain and inflammatory conditions.
3. Synergistic Effects: CBD may have synergistic effects when used with other medications, potentially allowing for lower doses of traditional pain medications, which can reduce the risk of side effects.
4. Improved Quality of Life: CBD may improve the quality of life for dogs with joint problems by increasing their mobility and comfort level, allowing them to be more active and engaged.
Transitioning from NSAIDs to CBD or using CBD as a complement to reduce NSAID dosage should be done slowly. It's important that dog owners know that CBD shouldn't also be used as a medical intervention as it's not a prescription medication, and it should not replace your dog's medical intervention.
In summary, while CBD holds promise for pain management in dogs and could potentially reduce reliance on NSAIDs. Should you like to incorporate this treatment, and you'd like your vet's opinion - it's important to approach your vet from a place of seeking guidance rather than expecting them to advocate for its use. This approach allows you to take responsibility for the choice while seeking their professional insight on how to do so safely.
Not all veterinarians may be fully aware of the potential benefits of CBD as vets are not allowed to prescribe CBD Oil as it's not considered a prescription drug, and many vets would rather just adopt a 'do no harm' approach to protect their practice.

We don't overproduce in this artisan process. Quality is of great importance to us. We also have 3rd Party Lab Results to verify and assure the highest quality of our products.
Yes! Our manufacturing process involves undergoing 3 rounds of quality testing at 3rd-party laboratory at both the batch and product level. We have strict rules when it comes to quality and standards.
When testing, if a certain element is off on that batch, we throw away all of it and start over. After the product has been through the whole procedure, the testing is over and the product officially has a Certificate of Analysis (COA), which ensures the safety of your furry friends.
You will be surprised at the amount of garbage and harmful ingredients there are in cheap, low-quality products being sold in the market. They are extremely damaging to your pet’s health, and more dog owners should be aware of the ingredients used. Our products have ingredients you can read and pronounce, and contain only the highest quality organic ingredients.
