CBD Products For Dogs

Yes. Many veterinarians recommend CBD and even use it on their own pets. For example, in an article in the Huffington Post, Mark Verdino, MD and chief of veterinary staff at North Shore Animal League in New York, said he gives his senior pup CBD each night to help with stress: “At nighttime when the lights are dimmed down… he gets a little spooked. And when I give him the CBD, he seems to just go to sleep.”

While current research is limited, many veterinarians find that hemp extract CBD has similar effects in dogs as it does in people. CBD supports the endocannabinoid system to help us cope with stress, promote healthy sleep cycles and support general wellness.

While more studies are needed, many veterinarians believe that CBD has the same relaxing effects for dogs as it does for people. In an article in the Huffington Post, Mark Verdino, chief of veterinary staff at North Shore Animal League in New York, said he gives his senior pup CBD each night to help with stress: “At nighttime when the lights are dimmed down … he gets a little spooked. And when I give him the CBD, he seems to just go to sleep.”

If your pup gets nervous at the sight of new dogs or the ping of a toaster oven, CBD tincture for dogs could potentially help.

According to the ASPCA, dogs that ingest large doses of THC may experience symptoms like mild sedation and urinary incontinence, a drunken appearance and loss of muscle control. A dog experiencing a THC overdose will need veterinary treatment, including IV fluids and anti-nausea medication. This highlights the importance of buying a quality, third-party tested CBD product that includes no detectable THC, and using it in the recommended dosages. However, it pays to be careful with your dog’s health. Consult your veterinarian to better understand the potential effects of excess CBD.

A 2019 study found that dogs experienced no adverse effects when they took CBD daily for 12 weeks. The scientists concluded that CBD is generally safe for dogs. However, it’s important to consult your veterinarian and discuss any potential issues in your dog’s health history.

A safe CBD dose and the amount considered toxic for puppies has yet to be determined. Young puppies don't metabolize what they ingest as efficiently as older puppies and adult dogs. With no formal studies completed as yet, even on adult dogs, studies on puppies are still pending. This is why we recommend Zebra CBD canine products for adult dogs only.

The company you do business with should be eager to tell you where and how the hemp plant used in your batch was grown. The source farm for our broad-spectrum CBD hemp oil uses organic practices to grow hemp under ideal weather conditions, which results in a premium plant. The hemp crop is grown in a majestic Colorado valley, where it thrives in the perfect amount of sunlight and humidity.

Hemp is a bioaccumulator, which means it absorbs toxins and other contaminants from the soil, air and water. That’s why we source exclusively from industrial hemp farms that meet our strict standards.
