Cannabidiol or CBD has recently been recognized for its health benefits in humans and pets too.
As new products continue to flood the market, CBD peanut butter for dogs is an exemplary product that meets the taste buds of your pets while providing the health benefits of CBD.
The great thing is you don’t need to buy CBD peanut butter for dogs, you can easily make your own! Why make your own, you might ask?
Well, if you already have a trusted brand of CBD Pet Oil you can incorporate this into any peanut butter at home. Especially if you want to tailor a CBD dose specifically to your dog’s needs. Let’s explain more.
WHY CBD TREATS ARE GOOD FOR YOUR DOG
CBD peanut butter is also useful in feeding CBD oil to dogs that are reluctant to take supplements or do not like the taste of certain foods.
The taste of peanut butter is something that dogs love and this makes it easy for them to take their CBD dose without any problems.
HOW TO PREPARE CBD PEANUT BUTTER FOR DOGS?
Making a delicious and healthy snack for your pet is easy with Dr. Hemp Me’s salmon-flavoured CBD oil. This is how to combine peanut butter and CBD for your furry pal!
Select Safe Peanut Butter
Use a natural, unsalted peanut butter for your dog without xylitol or chocolate as they are toxic to dogs.
Choose the Right CBD Oil
Use Dr. Hemp Me’s salmon-flavoured pet oil, which is made specifically for pets and is safe for ingestion by them.
Mixing the Ingredients
Determine the quantity of CBD oil that should be administered depending on the weight and health condition of your dog. When using peanut butter, add the CBD oil for every tablespoon, stirring it well to allow it to be evenly spread.
Storage
To preserve the quality of your CBD-infused peanut butter, store it in an airtight container and place it in the refrigerator.
Serving Size
Use the CBD pet oil as guided by dosage instructions on the product label. This can depend on the size of the pet and other factors. If your pet is a seasoned pet oil user then no need to worry, just add their typical daily dose or a week’s worth and mix well, giving a small part each day.
This not only hides the taste of the CBD with something that most dogs enjoy, peanut butter, but also allows you to easily add useful cannabinoids to your pet’s diet.
CBD FOR DOGS: POTENTIAL ADVANTAGES
There is an ever-growing body of emerging research on CBD for Dogs. Below we take a look at the reasons why it is used by pet owners and the evidence in research to support these potential, positive effects on pets!
ANXIETY & STRESS
CBD is known to have a calming effect on dogs especially in case of anxiety like separation anxiety, noise triggers or travel stresses. Exciting 2024 research highlights CBD’s calming effects on dogs, especially during separation from their caregivers.
- Reduced Vocalisation: Dogs administered CBD showed a significant decrease in vocal activity when separated from their owners compared to those given a placebo.
- Potential Anxiety Relief: The findings suggest CBD may help reduce anxiety-driven behaviours, making separations less stressful for your pet.
INFLAMMATION & JOINT PAIN
CBD is also known to have anti-inflammatory effects, which may help dogs with arthritis or other inflammatory diseases.
CANINE TESTIMONIALS & PET OWNER FEEDBACK
These are real life experiences of different dog owners who have used our CBD products for their dogs. They note that there is a significant positive change in the anxiety levels and even the mobility of their beloved pets.
Recent 2024 research proves the benefits of CBD for reducing anxiety & stress in dogs…
This study aligns perfectly with stories from pet owners who’ve seen great results:
CHOOSING A TRUSTWORTHY PRODUCT
Still, people should be cautious when they want to use CBD products because not all the products that are available on the Irish and European markets are of the same quality.
When purchasing CBD products and oils for pets, it is important to ensure that you are getting the best quality products available from the various shops including us here at Dr. Hemp Me. We create CBD Oil specifically for your dogs!
It’s essential to research and verify that the products are:
- Extracted from quality hemp
- Low quantity or free from THC
CBD DOSAGE GUIDANCE
The quantity of the CBD peanut butter that should be given to the dog will depend on the size of the dog as well as the concentration of the CBD.
In general, you should start with the least amount of this medicine for your pet, and then assess the outcome. If necessary, increase the dosage gradually but should not exceed the recommended amount stated by the doctor.
SAFETY & SIDE EFFECTS FOR CANINES
Despite the fact that CBD is not poisonous to dogs and is usually safe for use, it is advised that pet owners observe the dog for any unusual signs after administering CBD for the first time. Potential mild side effects include:
- Drowsiness
- Dry mouth
- Lowered blood pressure
Again it is important to note that CBD is non-toxic and once you purchase a trusted, reviewed product, and administer as per the dosage guidance on the product label, you should have no reason to worry!
A rule in the industry is to allow two hours or more between any CBD dose and medications simply to let each substance work independently of the other. So keep this in mind when giving your pet their daily dose!
CONCLUSION: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW ON DOG’S WELL BEING
CBD peanut butter for dogs is a natural and perfect solution to all the challenges that our dogs may face physically or emotionally, and therefore should be considered as part of their meals.
However, it is only sold as a nutritional supplement and thus it cannot be used as a medicine, treatment, prevention or a method to diagnose any disease or illness.
DISCLAIMER
It is important to remember that while CBD oil is safe for dogs and can be beneficial in a variety of ways, it should never be used as a sole treatment for any illness.
This is why CBD peanut butter should be included in the diet of your dog to enhance their wellbeing and to make them healthier, happier, and more energetic.
It is therefore recommended that one should seek advice from a vet before adding any supplement to the diet of your pet, more so if your pet is on other medications.
