CBD for Dogs

Naturecan - CBD for Dogs Endocannabinoid system

 

The appeal of CBD has transcended humans. Thanks to its therapeutic properties and non-intoxicating nature, it is now used to help dogs, cats, rabbits, and even horses overcome a range of medical conditions using the power of cannabis.

To those unfamiliar with the cannabinoid hemp industry, the idea of giving CBD to a pet that has separation anxiety, pain, or inflammation may seem absurd. But once caring pet owners appreciate how CBD for dogs positively affects them, it makes sense to use this natural remedy rather than potentially hazardous prescription medications.

Harnessing the power of CBD to help dogs live their best lives is still a new concept, meaning that large-scale research is somewhat inadequate. However, preliminary studies look promising, and UK vets may now prescribe CBD for dogs. In fact, many pet owners see life-changing results after giving their pets CBD². Since giving CBD to dogs is a recent innovation, in this article, we cover the fundamentals.

WHAT IS CBD?

CBD stands for cannabidiol. It’s one of over 100 bio-active chemical compounds known as cannabinoids produced by hemp plant flowers.

Each of these constituents has unique properties. Hemp is a strain of the Cannabis sativa plant that must contain less than 0.2% THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the intoxicating component in cannabis that induces a “high.”

In contrast, CBD lacks this effect because of the way it’s metabolised. Unlike THC, cannabidiol is non-intoxicating and, therefore, safe for your pet. CBD exerts its effects in humans, dogs, and other animals because of the endocannabinoid system (ECS).⁴ Scientists describe¹ the ECS as a complex network of neurotransmitters, receptors, and enzymes that help regulate essential bodily functions like mood, appetite, memory, inflammation, pain response, and the sleep-wake cycle.
