says it’s always best to start with full- or broad-spectrum prod- ucts for the “entourage eff ect”, in which the cannabinoids work in concert. Isolates of additional cannabinoids can be added as needed, he says. When choosing a product to purchase for a pet, he recom-
mends going with companies that are able to present the consum- er with a certifi cate of analysis by a third party. “T e certifi cate will show the complete profi le of the CBD product, including can- nabinoid, terpene, residual solvent, pesticide, bacteria, mycotoxin, fungicidal and elemental profi les,” he says. Cital notes that the elemental profi le is especially important.
“Hemp is very good at absorbing what is in its environment, including heavy metals such as lead.” Krause favors CBD products with minimal ingredients that
“should be as simple as possible,” she says. “No xylitol, no artifi cial colors or sweeteners.” Cindy Hesse, of Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, also be-
lieves that CBD for pets should be as pure as possible. Her Cocker Spaniel, Reina, is both blind and deaf. Because of her handicaps, Reina experienced extreme anxiety to the point of destroying her metal crate, furniture and door frames. Reina’s vet put her on the antidepressant and antianxiety drugs Prozac and trazadone, but these only helped for a short period. Aſt er attending a CBD conference in Florida, her veteri-
narian decided to see if the compound might help the dog—his fi rst patient to use CBD. T e results, Hesse says, were amazing. “Within three days, it was like I had a new dog. She no longer destroys things, she is calm, she is more engaged with her envi- ronment. I recommend CBD oil to everyone I know who has a pet with health issues.” When deciding whether to give CBD to a pet, Krause and Cital
recommend working with a veterinarian to ensure the proper dos- age. “People can certainly work with CBD on their own with their pets,” says Krause, “but it’s important to get the dosing and concen- tration right to make it worthwhile.”
