HOW DOES CBD WORK IN DOGS?

Dogs — like humans and all other mammals —  have an Endocannabinoid System (ECS), which is responsible for keeping all of their anatomical systems functioning properly. The ECS does this by receiving and processing nutritional cannabinoids, acting as a signalling system, responding to various states of health, and relaying instructions from the brain to cell receptor’s in a dog’s body. 

But a variety of stressors can eventually break down a dog’s ECS, resulting in a lack of endocannabinoids. Eventually, this depletion causes a dog’s bodily systems to become out of balance, resulting in various chronic or serious health conditions. 

But studies show that these deficiencies can be boosted back to healthy levels — through the supplementation of phytocannabinoids (the strains of hemp from which CBD is extracted).

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE MY DOG TO RESPOND TO CBD?

Every pup responds to CBD in a different timeframe. The speed at which your dog begins to improve depends on how depleted your their ECS is when you begin supplementation. For some dogs, results are observable within hours (often with anxiety) or days (mild conditions) upon administering CBD. For other dogs, whose ECS’ may be more deficient, improvement should be noticeable by 3 weeks. 

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO ADMINISTER CBD TO DOGS?

Pet parents can either administer their dog’s oil orally, directly into the mouth, or by topping their dog’s food with oil. Taking CBD with food increases the supplement’s bioavailability, as food helps with absorption, so our favourite way to administer CBD to dogs is to drop the recommended dose of oil over top of your dog’s wet or dry food. 

 

While some dogs with mild conditions are able to take CBD on an as-needed basis, or once per day, we have found that the most effective way to use CBD and yield results is to administer our recommended dose two times per day. We recommend doing this every 12 hours — an easy way to remember is to add oil to your dog’s breakfast, and again to dinner.
