Discovering Organic CBD Oil For Dogs

By Gregory Quezada


Taking care of health needs is often the number one priority of good pet owners. In doing so, these individuals need to have a clear understanding of what edibles and medications are appropriate for different types of pets. With new products such as Organic CBD Oil For Dogs, edibles and sprays hitting pet and other stores around the world, it is even more so.

As with all medications for pets, separating fact from fiction is essential in guaranteeing the safety of treatment. As a method of assisting pet owners better understand the facts about CBD oil and other products, the American Kennel Association's top veterinarian has provided an explanation as to the properties, drawbacks and benefits of the product as it relates to dogs.

According to the officer and other sources, CBD is found in the hemp and cannabis plant. Although, unlike marijuana which also comes from hemp, CBD does not contain THC. As a result, those using CBD products do not experience the same experience of getting high as those whom smoke, vape, eat or drink products containing marijuana.

When it comes to dogs, there have been no official studies related as to how CBD effects dogs, or other animals and pets. However, scientists have discovered that the product interacts with the endo-cannabinoids receptors located in the peripheral and central nervous system. As such, the product helps balance body, mind and spirit while keeping the body in a healthy state.

While there has been no official scientific evidence established as to how the product effects animals, pet owners claim the product has shown to ease pain, control seizures and calm anxiety in dogs, cats and other pets. As such, it appears the effects are basically the same in most pets as humans.

CBD also has cardiac, anti-anxiety, anti-nausea and anti-inflammatory benefits. In addition, both the New England and Harvard Journals of Medicine have shown that the product has the ability to kill cancer cells. While there has been no official proof of these claims, individuals who have, or are using the product have often seen these results first hand.

The AKC in conjunction with the Colorado State University's College of Veterinary Medicine is now undertaking a study as to the positive and negative effects CBD has on epilepsy in dogs. Researchers hope the study will be the first to prove CBD successful in this endeavor.

Just as there have been no proof of benefits, there have been even fewer studies with regards to side effects or drug interactions. Although, based on current findings of how CBD oil effects humans, while there is potential for side effects, most are common with regards to uses for CBD. For example, there is a calming effect which has the potential to lower blood pressure and cause drowsiness. As such, if an individual takes more than the recommended dosage, it could lead to long periods of drowsiness or sleep.
