CBD Oil For Pets?
CBD oil is not only for humans, it’s also suitable for animals. CBD is suitable for smaller pets, such as cats and dogs, as well as for larger animals, such as horses. Which dosage is correct? And how do you administer the CBD to your pet in the easiest way? Let’s answer these questions right away!
Dosing CBD for animals
It is already quite a task for people to determine the right dosage. After all, there are many different reasons to use CBD and the dosage can differ for every situation. Because animals, unlike humans, cannot indicate when they feel that the correct dosage has been reached, it is important to keep a very close eye on the animal’s behaviour.
Small changes can tell you a lot about whether you are on the right track with the dosage. It may feel unnecessary, but it is recommended to always record your animal’s behaviour. Write down how your animal behaves per day (part of the day). When you see these facts all lined up after a week, you may see a pattern or an effect.
What form of CBD should I administer to animals?
For all animals, we recommend administering CBD in the form of oil. The drops are easy and precise to dose and the oil can also be dripped into the food, without your (domestic) animal noticing. An additional advantage is that the oil per mg CBD is the cheapest.
Is CBD oil safe for animals?
CBD oil is safe to use on dogs, cats and horses. Do not use during pregnancy and lactation.
Be careful with other medications!
CBD oil may interact with other medications. So if your pet is taking medication, it is advisable to consult your vet first. Even if your pet has serious complaints or not, always contact your vet first to find out if medical treatment is necessary. Do not use during pregnancy and lactation.
What does CBD oil do to animals?
In certain situations the production of cannabinoids in your pet may be insufficient and the addition of CBD oil to the feed may be a good supplement. Think of acute or chronic stress/anxiety. CBD oil has a rest supporting effect without affecting the brain. The CBD oil can, if desired, be dripped directly onto the skin.
CBD oil can stimulate appetite.
If you have any doubts about this purchase, you can of course also inform your local vet and discuss what is best for your animal!
