The science of veterinary CBD
The ECS in Mammals
All mammals—and in fact virtually all vertebrates—share a functional endocannabinoid system with humans. This includes dogs, cats, and horses. CB1 and CB2 receptors are distributed throughout their nervous, immune, and digestive systems in a manner analogous to humans.
What the research says
A study by Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine (Gamble et al., 2018) observed improved activity and comfort in dogs with osteoarthritis after 4 weeks of CBD at 2 mg/kg twice daily. Important: cats metabolize cannabinoids differently than dogs and are more sensitive.
How to use it properly
ALWAYS use products formulated specifically for pets. Human products may contain dangerous ingredients (xylitol, essential oils like tea tree, cocoa). Look for isolated or broad-spectrum CBD. Dosage calculated by the animal's weight and always consult your veterinarian.
