CBD oil in pets: what is it and why are more and more people using it?

CBD oil in pets

In recent years, the CBD (cannabidiol) has become very popular because of its potential welfare benefits. Although we tend to associate it with people, more and more pet owners are taking an interest in the CBD oil for dogs and cats as a natural complement to improve their quality of life.

But what exactly is CBD and is it safe for our pets? In this article we explain it to you in a simple way.

What is CBD?

CBD is a naturally occurring compound that is extracted from the hemp, a variety of the plant Cannabis sativa. Unlike THC, CBD non-psychoactive, This means that it does not produce a “stoned” effect or alter consciousness.

CBD oil for pets is formulated specifically for animals and is usually free of THC or contains minimal amounts within legal limits.

What is CBD used for in pets?

Many caregivers turn to CBD as an alternative to natural support for a variety of everyday situations. Although scientific research is still developing, the use of CBD in pets is commonly associated with:

Stress and anxiety (e.g. storms, fireworks, travel)
Joint discomfort in older dogs
Restlessness or nervousness
General support for well-being and calm

It is important to stress that CBD does not replace veterinary treatments or prescription drugs, but can be used as a supplement, always under the supervision of a professional.

*Always seek the advice of your veterinarian before starting to use CBD in your pet.

Is CBD oil safe for dogs and cats?

When using a quality product specifically formulated for pets, CBD is generally well tolerated. However, each animal is different and may react differently.

Therefore, before incorporating CBD into your pet's routine, it is recommended:

Consult a veterinarian (especially if the animal is on medication).
Start with low doses
Observe possible changes in their behaviour

Rare side effects may include mild drowsiness or changes in appetite.

There are different articles that support the use of CBD in pets, and explain how it can be beneficial for our pets, such as SantéVet, which discusses the benefits of CBD in dogs and the website Zoomalia, which lists 5 tips on how to use it correctly.

How is CBD administered to pets?

CBD oil is usually administered in a simple way:

Directly into the mouth with a dropper
Mixed with regular food or treats

Dosage depends on the weight, age and specific needs of each pet, so following the manufacturer's and veterinarian's instructions is key.

How to choose a good CBD oil for pets?

Not all CBD oils are the same. When choosing one, it is important to look at the following:

Origin of hemppreferably responsibly farmed
Laboratory analysiscertificates guaranteeing purity and content
THC-free or at minimum legal levels
Animal-friendly formula, free of artificial and toxic ingredients
