By now you have undoubtedly heard about hemp oil for pets and what the benefits can be. Are you still not sure? I understand, there is a lot of conflicting information on the internet about hemp oil for pets, and I want to help. Here are some answers to all those questions that you have.
- Can my dog get “high” from taking Hemp Oil?
No, Most Hemp Oil products are not psychoactive in any way, do not contain Marijuana nor are they Medicinal Marijuana products. But, not all hemp oil products are the same. Here’s what you need to know according to the American Kennel Club (AKC).
- Look for organic. If the CBD oil is not organic, it at least should not contain pesticides, fungicides, or solvents.
- Don’t price shop. The higher the quality and purity, the higher the cost. You don’t want to go for a cheaper option that could have toxic substances such as pesticides, herbicides, or heavy metals. Make sure your CBD oil is free of additives.
- Get the analysis. The manufacturer should provide a certificate that tells you the amount of CBD that is in the product. Many CBD oils contain only small amounts of CBD. You’ll also want to make sure there is little or no THC in the product.
- Buy CBD as a tincture. You can buy dog treats containing CBD, but the best form to administer is a tincture. This way, you can adjust your dog’s dose drop by drop.
2. What is the suggested serving amount for my Dog?
A recommended serving size based should be based on your dog’s weight. If you are unsure, contact your, veterinarian. The dosage provided by the company on the label is general guidelines only. However, a trusted company has a veterinarian on staff to ensure that the dosage is correct according to a dog’s weight.
3. How do I give Hemp Oil to my dog?
The best way to administer hemp oil is orally by adding it to your dog’s food, treats, or even just allow them to lick it out of your hand. Dogs all have different preferences. I add it to my dog’s food and they seem to love it, but how you do it depends on your dog’s preference.
Do not, however, allow your dog to lick it out of the jar or to lick the dropper. This could lead to contamination and degradation of the product.
4. What happens if my Pet consumes more than the suggested serving amount?
That depends on your dog’s weight and metabolism and your individual dog’s response to hemp oil products. There is the possibility that they may become lethargic and/or uncoordinated for a time until it metabolizes. There are no long term effects. But, if you have any concerns please contact your veterinarian.
5. Are Hemp Oil products safe for my dog to consume?
They are if they are sourced with high-quality human-grade ingredients. The hemp oil product that you choose should be safe for humans to consume.
The ingredients should be organically grown and never treated with pesticides or any other harmful products.
6. Can my dog take Hemp Oil products while on other medications?
The simple answer is when in doubt, ask your veterinarian. It is better to be safe than sorry.
7. Can Hemp Oil products be used as preventative maintenance for my dog?
Yes, that’s exactly how they should be used, as a daily supplement. Just like humans, waiting until your Pet has an ailment makes it harder to recover, so start today!
8. What is the best way to store Hemp Oil Pet products when not in use?
Please store all ingestible products in a cool and dark place, as heat and light will cause degradation of the product. Refrigeration is recommended, but it depends on your personal preference.
9. Where can I find a quality Hemp Oil product that I know I can trust?
I recommend HempMy Pet products. That is what I give my dogs. The reason being that I have researched the company and HempMy pet products check all the boxes that the American Kennel Club (AKC) says to look for when looking for Hemp Oil for your dog.
