When you come home after a long day, you are exhausted. You muscles pain, you might even have a headache. With the recent legalisation of CBD you might turn to a CBD strain. These are effective pain relievers and anti-inflammatory agents. We all agree. It comes in all forms and sizes, flowers, oil, gummy bears and drinks. Oh, you knew that already? You’re probably smoking a blunt everyday.
Just like us, our pets also engage in a lot of activities everyday. Barking, sniffing around, jumping at things or walking the entire day. These take a lot energy, muscle movement. By the end of the day your dog is exhausted and in pain. Just like you they want to relieve their stress. Wouldn’t it be perfect if you and your dog could share a J? Well that’s not happening anytime soon.
Instead you guys can share the same relaxed state.
Dogs share the same endocannabinoid system that we have. Meaning they have the same CB receptors we have spread all over their body. Deriving the same logic, they will benefit the same way we are. CBD will react with their CB receptors and work the same way it does for us. Isn’t that great?
CBD is legal to produce and buy from stores. Although Veterinary Doctors are not allowed to prescribe CBD as a medicine for your dogs. Many pet owners have tried and experimented. They have seen almost instant results. From stopping seizures to putting your dog’s leukemia in remission. CBD has done miracles for pet owners world wide. Popular online portals such as PetMD have advocated the use of CBD for pets. There are many pet CBD products out there. They are available with 0% THC and hence are safe.
From anxiety relief, pain control, lessened seizures, epilepsy and many more symptoms can be treated with the use of CBD. It balances your dog’s bodily functions such as:
Mood
Appetite
Memory
Metabolism
SleepPleasure
Movement and Coordination
Immune system repair
Although there is a lack of significant research available for CBD benefits for pets. There are success stories available on the internet. From dogs suffering with cancer to stress many pet owners are sharing their success stories everyday. The field of veterinary medicine is divided on the topic. There is an increasing number of vets wanting to back CBD and they want to be able to recommend its usage.
