Thinking about giving your dog CBD?
Let’s face it, we treat our dogs like our own children and sometimes a little better. We would do whatever it takes to ensure our four-legged friends are healthy, both physically and mentally. Whether your dog gets anxious on car rides or can’t stand fireworks, using CBD can be an effective treatment. But is it safe?
Why Give Your Dog CBD?
As dog’s age, many will develop aches, pains, and anxiety. There are plenty of medications that can be prescribed for these conditions, but many people find that these medications affect their dog’s mood and behaviors; causing the owner to find alternative options.
Some of the benefits of CBD for dogs are said to be:
- Decreases stress and helps with anxiety: It has been reported that giving CBD can reduce the stress associated with social/separation anxiety.
- Decrease pain: Especially when it comes to inflammation and pain caused by auto-immune diseases like arthritis.
- Can help soothe skin conditions: CBD helps to repair the skin barrier to protect from bacteria and other allergens.
- Helps with noise phobias: CBD products can help keep your pup calm during a thunderstorm or a night of fireworks.
One key selling point for many people is that CBD has little to no negative side effects for dogs. Many show improvement with their conditions in as little as a few weeks.
How is CBD administered to animals?
place the product directly in your dogs mouth
This is the easiest and most efficient way to give your dog its daily dose of CBD. Directly giving your dog CBD through the mouth will allow you to give the right amount and recommended dose.
Mix the CBD with dog food
If your dog is very picky, this is a good way to give them their daily dose of CBD. This method usually works because the taste of CBD is masked with the flavor of their food.
Add CBD to something tasty
We all know our dogs love their daily treat. This is a perfect time to give them their daily dose of CBD. RECOVRX beef-flavored treats are formulated with water-soluble CBD powder and other premium ingredients, providing superior results in a tasty chew your dogs will love.
Consult Your Veterinarian
If you and your veterinarian decide that you should try CBD as a treatment for your dog, there are a few things to keep in mind when purchasing CBD. Not all CBD products are the same; you’ll want high-quality CBD oil to have a better chance of it working. It is very important not to give your dogs products containing THC, which can make them sick. Before buying any product, make sure the company provides test results that prove the product has the potency and ingredients that are claimed on the label
You should always do your research to determine the right product type or amount administered for your pet. It may take a few tries to find what works best – but your pup will certainly thank you for it.
