When should you give CBD oil to your dog?

CBD oils for dogs are proving to be effective in terms of many disease entities typical to the species. It is estimated that the most common neurological disease among them is epilepsy, which can affect 0.5-5% of the population. Administering CBD to a dog with epilepsy can effectively alleviate seizures as well as reduce their frequency, thus sparing the liver and other organs.

Apart from epilepsy, joint issues are also very common in dogs. About 20% of dogs over the age of 1 year suffer from osteoarthritis, and the risk of the disease increases significantly with age. A study conducted at Baylor College of Medicine in Texas confirmed that CBD reduces pain and has a positive impact on improving the mobility of dogs with osteoarthritis.

However, anxiety disorders, which dogs also suffer from, should not be disregarded. The anti-anxiety and sedative effects are the best documented of all the pharmacological actions attributed to CBD in animals. CBD oil for dogs has shown its effectiveness against general anxiety, panic, obsessive-compulsive disorder, separation anxiety and social anxiety in dogs.

CBD oil for cats - use

Lower urinary tract disease (FLUTD), renal insufficiency or excessive aggression are just a few feline disorders in case of which CBD is effective in improving your pet's health.

One of the most common problems for cat owners is fouling in the house which can be caused by feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC). Statistics show that as many as 2/3 of FLUTD cats suffer specifically from FIC. CBD oil for cats can effectively reduce the pain and inflammatory symptoms that accompany lower urinary tract syndrome.

Another equally serious challenge for cat owners is feline aggression. This harmful and even health-threatening behaviour can be directed towards other animals both of the same species and others, as well as towards owners and people who come into contact with the affected cat.

In such a situation, the calming and relaxing effects of CBD can help to reduce aggression in your pet. 

How does CBD affect the body of your dog/cat?

Just like any other vertebrate, your dog/cat has its own cannabinoid-producing system, same as humans. This is the so-called endocannabinoid system whose CB1 and CB2 receptors are found in almost every system of your pet's body, and therefore in almost every organ, tissue and cell (including nerve and immune cells.)

The endocannabinoid system of the cat and dog is therefore able to regulate almost all biological processes occurring in their bodies. It is no coincidence that the main function of this system is to keep your pet healthy.

CBD oil dosage for animals

The key factor in specifying the right amount of oil for your pet is its weight. This is what will mainly determine how many milligrams of CBD will effectively work on your pet's body.

Calculation of CBD dosage

When calculating the dosage, same as with CBD dosage for humans, it is most crucial to know how many milligrams of the substance are in 1 millilitre of oil. To find out, simply use the information on product concentration. The next step is to multiply your pet's kilograms by approximately 0.2 mg (the basic amount of CBD per kilogram of body weight.)

Example: If your pet weighs 5 kg, the base dose for them should be 1 mg of CBD.

5 kg x 0,2 mg = 1 mg

CBD dosage for dogs and cats

If the initial dose is insufficient, it is advisable to modify it slightly after 10 to 14 days. It is recommended to increase the amount of administered CBD by about 2 mg/kg until there is a noticeable improvement in the health of your pet.

Is CBD safe for pets?

PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION OF THE SAFETY OF ESCALATING CANNABINOID DOSES IN HEALTHY DOGS

Dose escalation of the CBD-predominant oil formulation was proven to be as safe as placebo and safer than dose escalation of oils containing THC (CBD/THC oil or THC oil). The favourable safety profile of 10 escalating volumes of CBD oil containing 18.3-640.5 mg CBD per dose (~ 2-62 mg / kg) provides comparative evidence that, at the doses tested, the CBD-predominant formulation was safer and better tolerated in dogs than oil formulations containing higher concentrations of THC.

PHARMACOKINETICS, SAFETY, AND CLINICAL EFFICACY OF CANNABIDIOL TREATMENT IN OSTEOARTHRITIC DOGS

The study showed a significant decrease in pain and an increase in animal activity when using CBD oil. Veterinary assessment confirmed a reduction in pain during CBD treatment. Owners, on the other hand, did not report any side effects. According to this study, 2 mg / kg of CBD twice per day may help increase comfort and activity in dogs with osteoarthritis.

RANDOMIZED BLINDED CONTROLLED CLINICAL TRIAL TO ASSESS THE EFFECT OF ORAL CANNABIDIOL ADMINISTRATION IN ADDITION TO CONVENTIONAL ANTIEPILEPTIC TREATMENT ON SEIZURE FREQUENCY IN DOGS WITH INTRACTABLE IDIOPATHIC EPILEPSY

During the study, a significant reduction in seizure frequency was achieved in dogs in the group using CBD. Given the correlation between plasma CBD concentrations and seizure frequency, additional studies are warranted to determine whether a higher dose of CBD would be effective in reducing seizure activity seizure activity by ≥ 50%.
