There’s no doubt that high quality hemp-derived pet CBD is considered a less invasive, therapeutic supplement for our beloved pet companions. This is especially true for our canine friends. It seems everyone is on board with hemp for dogs, and for good reason…
According to research, hemp-derived CBD is not at all psychoactive, unlike its infamous cousin, Delta 9 THC. Which means you don’t have to worry about your dog getting “high” off of CBD.
And since our canine friends have an Endocannabinoid System like we humans do, consuming hemp-derived cannabinoids like CBD seems only natural [¹].
After all, researchers have discovered that pet CBD helps animals maintain a normal and relaxed disposition. And that’s not all…
One study, involving dogs with Idiopathic epilepsy, showed that 89% of the dogs who received CBD experienced a significant reduction in their seizure frequency. Another study, involving Osteoarthritic dogs, found that CBD decreased their pain and increased their overall activity [²,³]
While more studies are needed, especially when it comes to determining how much CBD you should give your dog, it’s clear that there are some pretty intriguing benefits surrounding CBD for dogs.
But the studies mentioned above used CBD oil for dogs, not CBD dog treats. So…
Not exactly… You see, the issue isn’t so much with the CBD. No, it’s actually with the pet treat itself. Unless your CBD pet treat is made with wholesome ingredients and a high quality pet CBD, then yes, that pet CBD treat will likely be ineffective. Or worse, even harmful to your dog.
The problem with most pet CBD treats is that during the baking process, the CBD breaks down significantly at a certain temperature. Once the CBD is broken down, the pet CBD is not as bioavailable, or as easily absorbed, as it was before it was baked [⁴].
If your dog can’t absorb the pet CBD in the treat, they won’t be able to reap the benefits that CBD can offer them — hence the reason why so many pet owners see more positive results with pet CBD oil.
The key to creating high quality, effective pet CBD treats is to use very low temperatures. The other thing you need to be on the lookout for is added ingredients…
Dogs don’t need added ingredients for their food or treats, especially if those ingredients include the following [⁵,⁶]:
The fewer the ingredients in your pet CBD treat, the better — especially if those ingredients are easy to pronounce. Can you say Gum Arabic, Sodium Alginate, Microcrystalline Cellulose three times fast? Neither can we.
That’s why we urge you to check the label of your pet CBD treats and make sure they don’t contain any unnecessary, added ingredients.
With all that said, you’re probably wondering…
As much as we love to see CBD pet treats more readily available at your local pet store, we can’t say we always love the brands they’re carrying.
