What is CBD?

CBD is short for cannabidoil. Unlike THC, CBD is NOT a psychoactive drug. CBD will not cause a "high" feeling or any mental or physical impairment. CBD helps with health conditions including chronic pain, nausea, anxiety, and sleep disorders. CBD is safe for human and pet consumption.

 

What are the benefits of giving my dog CBD?

Daily CBD use can ease several conditions such as anxiety (including separation anxiety), stress (including from loud noises such as fireworks), moderate to severe pain, inflammation, arthritis, joint pain, digestion problems, nausea, symptoms from cancer, seizures, various skin conditions, and sleeplessness.

My Recipe Tips:

For the oatmeal: use old-fashioned or rolled oats. Do not use steel cut or instant oats for this recipe for best results.

For the sweet potato: don't peel the potato before cooking it

Peanut butter: you can use crunchy or creamy, but make sure it is is unsalted and does not contain any kind of sugar or other additives. Do NOT use peanut butter that contains xylitol, as it is toxic to dogs. 

 

Measuring CBD beverage enhancer dosage

This recipe makes roughly 16 servings. Decide how much CBD you want to have in each cookie then multiply by 16 for the total dosage. As a general rule, we recommend 1-2 mg CBD per 10 pounds of dog. 

 

An example: You have a 30 pound dog who has recently started using CBD. 

30lbs / 10lbs of dog = 3 mg - 6mg recommendation 

3mg x 16 servings =  48 mg of CBD for the ENTIRE recipe
