Pets Can Use CBD Too?
Sad, but true: companionship and love are difficult to come by in life, and sometimes you just need a friend. Like the song says, “we get by with a little help from our friends”, and our pets are some of our very best friends! They comfort us and bring us peace when we are feeling low. Need somebody to talk to? Talk to your dogs or cats. They’ll be your therapist, and the most compassionate listener you’ll find anywhere. Because you have such a tight bond, nothing is scarier than when your pet isn’t feeling well. You want your little buddy to get the best of everything, and healthcare is no exception. Veterinary care, especially of the quality your most faithful friend deserves, can prove expensive. Did you know that besides all of the health benefits there are for humans, our pets can use CBD oil too? Here are a few pet problems that you can start to solve with a little help from CBD oil.
Seizures
Just as in humans, epilepsy is frightening to watch and hard for your pet to go through. CBD oil has been proven to help reduce the length, duration, and frequency of seizures. For some patients, they have eradicated seizures completely. If your pet is dealing with the effects of epilepsy and you are at a loss for how to help them, consider starting a course of CBD oil with them.
Chronic Pain
As our pets age, we are faced with the sad reality that these little souls don’t live as long as humans. Aging begins to take effect, and brings along with it a host of issues for our pets. If you find that you have a pet that is suffering from chronic pain due to arthritis or an old injury, giving them CBD oil for pain relief can really give them a new lease on life. Once that pain is gone, you are going to have to prepare to deal with chasing after your buddy due to the renewed energy!
Separation Anxiety
An anxious pet is a danger to himself, and it is difficult for you too. Pets who suffer from anxiety destroy furnishings and floors, and injure themselves in the process. Besides all of that, it is just sad to leave your pet to be miserable and lonesome all day without you. If you must be away from home, start using CBD therapy and staying away for a little while and increasing slowly until your pet is prepared to live their life without you being home.
Our dog groomer uses little CBD doggie biscuits to help them relax during their grooming! You can find different brands of CBD doggie cookies at pet stores. Or just use a little of the CBD oil you use and rub it in their mouth.
So many of the conditions we as humans suffer with occur in pets too. While that may seem odd to us, the beauty of it is that if something that helps us is helpful to them too, we can get them the remedy right away. It would never do for our lives to improve while our pets continue to suffer. Try CBD doggie chews and make that change work for your pet too.

Your welcome! The brand I link to is what I use and also give to my pets. I’ve tried other brands but they have a touch of THC and I don’t like that!

I am going to look into getting some of this for my cat ,Tiny. Tiny is neurotic and has really bad anxiety she hides most of the time and only likes to sit by me and watch t.v at night. I would love for her to have a normal life.

We had a horrific wind storm last night Judy, and I gave some to my Shihtzu. He usually can’t sleep and paces all night. This calmed him down and we all could sleep!!
