CBD Soft Chews to Ease Separation Anxiety in Dogs

You’ve heard a lot about medical marijuana – it contains phytonutrients that can help inflammation and pain. Now, CBD benefits are available for your dog too! This post from PetGuide.com sheds light on how cannabidiol soft chews may help dogs deal with separation anxiety.

Medicinal marijuana is a hot topic. In Canada, a law that will legalize marijuana is set to be passed in spring of 2017. So what benefits does it offer? It contains compounds that affect certain parts of the body differently. Growers of these plants have the ability to use or breed certain stains that contain less compounds. Here’s a short list of some of them:

1. THC: causes the high feeling and may benefit Alzheimer’s disease, MS, Parkinson’s disease, PTSD, cancer, and pain that originates in the nervous system.
2. CBD: called cannabidiol and may benefit cancer, anxiety, chronic pain, psychotic disorders, cancer, epilepsy, and diabetes.
3. CBC: called cannabichromene, and is known for its anti-inflammatory, anti-depressant, and antifungal abilities.
4. CBN: called cannabinol, which acts as an appetite stimulant, pain reliever, sedative, and antibiotic.
5. CBG: called cannabigerol, which is helpful against psoriasis, pain, infections (fungal), and tumors.

When used medicinally, doctors are able to prescribe a particular constituent of the plant such as CBD to someone with cancer, anxiety and chronic pain.

In order to get any type of medical marijuana product, the laws in the state you are living in have to be followed. A medical prescription is required and only a certain amount of marijuana products may be purchased at any one time.

Medical marijuana and hemp products for dogs are are growing trend. Not only have vets started using it for cancer and arthritis, but also for separation anxiety disorder.
