All over the world, people are turning to CBD to help their pets overcome pain, anxiety, allergies and skin conditions. CBD interacts with your pet’s Endocannabinoid system, much as it does in humans, leading to a variety of positive outcomes.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is the non-psychoactive compound of the cannabis plant. CBD, unlike THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), does not get you high but does contain the natural healing properties of the marijuana plant.
Just like us, our pets experience anxiety and suffer from arthritis. One of the most stressful times of the year for Pets is “Firework Season”, particularly Diwali which starts on Sunday 27 October. Fireworks are stressful for many dogs (and cats) as the loud noises trigger adrenaline and stress hormones, and their instincts tell them to run! They jump over fences, crash through windows, and will do everything they can think of to escape the terrifying sounds. This can be a serious risk, and we owe it to our animals to help them feel safe.
At its base, a pet’s fear-response to noise is all about anxiety. Loud noises can make your dog feel emotionally distressed and wary. The brain releases a cocktail of stress hormones that no amount of comforting and kind words will soothe. CBD is reliably fast-acting and effective in relieving anxiety, which is why it has become so popular for people and pets! When there is a chemical imbalance caused by anxiety, CBD works to make sure the body responds appropriately, helping lift the clouds of fear so your pets are better able to cope with their emotions.
CBD Drops for Pets is fast-acting so you should administer the recommended dosage 15-30 minutes before the fireworks are set to begin. Start with a low dose, 3 -5 drops, and only increase if you don’t see results. You should test the CBD oil beforehand to make sure you establish the correct dose for your pet. This is based on weight, size, and age. Current studies show that it is near impossible to overdose on CBD. If you accidentally give your dog more than anticipated, there’s a very slim chance of it having any adverse effects.
