CBD Peanut Butter For Dogs — The Treat Your Dog Will Go Nuts For!

There are few things in this world that a dog loves more than peanut butter! It can be the perfect bribe for good behavior, a savory snack, and is good enough that a dog will quickly forget their worries over the delicious taste of peanut butter. Pet owners who give CBD to their pets might wonder why these two things have not yet been combined into CBD peanut butter for dogs!

 

Other people might wonder what CBD peanut butter is, if you can make it at home and if it is safe to give to dogs. If you are searching for the answers to these questions and more, you have come to the perfect article for you. Please stick with me below and unravel the mysteries of CBD peanut butter!

 

 

What Is CBD Peanut Butter For Dogs?

CBD peanut butter for dogs takes the delicious peanut butter flavor dogs love and combines it with the various wellness benefits found in CBD products. CBD peanut butter provides pet owners with an easy way to provide fussy dogs with their CBD. It also makes for an excellent treat or distraction technique for those times when your pup needs to get their mind off of something.

 

 

 

 

Is CBD Peanut Butter Safe for Dogs?

Cannabidiol (or CBD) is a well-tolerated substance in humans and animals. CBD has no reported cases of fatal overdose! This makes CBD a good option for pet owners to provide their pets, even daily. Still, your pet can take too much CBD if you don't keep a close eye on their consumption.

 

When less desirable effects are experienced after consuming CBD, it is most often the result of taking too much at once! Avoiding this is simple and requires some patience and know-how to pull off. We will cover how to go about this further below.

 

 

What's Inside CBD Peanut Butter For Dogs?

Natural peanut butter (the kind you should look for!) of high quality should contain as few ingredients as possible, with the best only containing peanuts and sometimes salt. Natural peanut butter is full of healthy fats and nutrients that may support healthy brain function! This makes peanut butter a great healthy snack you won't feel guilty over giving to your dog.

 

CBD peanut butter will, of course, also contain CBD! The CBD inside can either be from a broad or full spectrum CBD oil or CBD isolate powder, both of which should easily incorporate into the peanut butter. This allows the texture of the peanut butter to remain smooth and creamy.

CBD Peanut Butter Benefits

CBD peanut butter can provide consumers with various potential benefits! When made with only premium ingredients, both the peanut butter and CBD components provide their best benefits. After all, peanut butter is high in protein, healthy fats, and fatty acids. Not too bad for a sweet treat!

 

However, the biggest benefits come from the naturally occurring CBD that's infused in the peanut butter! CBD is a well-tolerated substance in humans and dogs alike, making it a great option for various applications, including daily administration! CBD works by interacting with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) to maintain a balanced system.

 

The ECS is a complex cellular regulation system found in all animals. It's responsible for maintaining balance in daily life like sleep, mood, memory, and more. When the ECS has optimal balance, we refer to this as a state of homeostasis. When the ECS is in homeostasis, we believe consumers can naturally enjoy greater wellness.

 

Some of the potential benefits consumers can get from CBD include:

• Promotes calm
• Physical relaxation
• Maintains natural sleep
• Supports appetite

 

 

 

 

 

Effects Of CBD Peanut Butter

As a well-tolerated substance, it is rare for CBD to cause any undesired side effects. Still, side effects are not impossible, especially if one consumes too much CBD at once. The most common side effects are:

• Red eyes
• Dry mouth
• Diminished appetite
• Headache
• Upset stomach

 

If any side effects increase rather than decrease in severity with time or are more severe, we recommend seeking a doctor's advice. Most of the time, side effects should be mild and will quickly reduce in severity but bringing your dog to the vet is the best way to ensure their comfort.

 

How Long For Does It Take For CBD To Work In Dogs?

Several factors may influence how long it will take for CBD to work on your dog. The same factors can also influence the average time that the effects last. This means that the duration and onset of the effect will be different from one dog to another. Some of the factors that can influence when and for how long the effects last include:

• Bodyweight
• Tolerance
• Metabolism rate
• Activity level
• Dog's food intake

 

Aside from these internal factors, some other factors influence the timing of CBD. The biggest of these external factors is the type of product consumed. The product type greatly influences the onset time and duration because each dog's body processes every product differently. Edible products like CBD peanut butter come with a longer onset time because your dog will first have to digest them for the CBD to take effect.

 

On average, the onset time for edible products can vary. Still, generally, it will take 45 minutes to one hour for the effects to become noticeable. The trade-off for this longer offset time is that edible products typically last much longer than other consumption methods. The effects of edible products can last between six and eight hours at a time, making edible products an excellent choice for dogs in need of relief that lasts throughout the day or night.

 

 

Can You Make Your Own CBD Peanut Butter?

Yes! And making your own CBD peanut butter is a very straightforward process. To make CBD peanut butter for dogs, you'll need two ingredients: CBD extract and peanut butter. Typically for the CBD component, you have two main choices, detailed below:

• CBD oil – Cannabidiol oil made with hemp seed oil as a carrier agent is fast and effective in administering CBD to your pet. CBD oil is easily mixed into foods and drinks, making it an excellent choice for infusing peanut butter.
• Isolate – CBD isolate comes in powder form, allowing it to easily dissolve into most foods and liquids. Isolate is a great choice for dogs because it is completely flavorless and THC free.

 

How to Make CBD Peanut Butter

To make CBD peanut butter, first, you need to find a dog-safe brand of peanut butter. We suggest prioritizing natural brands that only use high-quality ingredients. Take a tablespoon or two of this, and then add your CBD oil or isolate. Mix the two well, and then it's ready to serve!

 

We recommend mixing each serving individually. If you mix a large batch, the CBD can separate from the peanut butter. This can result in varying amounts of CBD in the peanut butter, potentially creating waste. Some CBD peanut butter for dogs may be made with additives to bind the CBD oil to the peanut butter, but still, the oil may separate to the top. Because of this, we recommend getting the ingredients separately and making your own.

 

How Much CBD Should I Give My Dog?

Generally, we recommend a simple guideline for giving your pet CBD: start with a low amount and only increase the amount of CBD provided in small increments. Before giving your pet more, make sure you wait an appropriate amount of time for the previously given amount to kick in.

 

There is also a way to figure out the correct amount using your dog's weight. For a regular amount, we recommend you follow this simple equation:

• (dog's weight X 0.25mg = regular serving)

 

If it seems like the regular dose doesn't provide the desired effects for your dog, you can try giving them a greater amount. To give your dog a stronger CBD experience, you'll have to double the amount you multiply your pup's weight by. For example:

• (dog's weight X 0.50 = large serving)

 

 

 

 

What's The Shelf Life Of CBD Peanut Butter For Dogs?

When stored properly, CBD's shelf life can be relatively long — remaining fresh for up to two years! CBD stays potent for longer when kept away from heat and sunlight, so try finding a cool, dry place to store your product.

 

However, the peanut butter component of CBD peanut butter for dogs has a different shelf life than CBD products. Commercial peanut butters last for around six to 24 months if left unopened. Once opened, commercial peanut butter will last for around two to three months. Homemade peanut butter has a much shorter shelf life and needs storing in a refrigerator to stay fresh due to its raw nature. Refrigerated homemade peanut butter will likely last for around three to six months.

 

 

What To Look For When Shopping For CBD Peanut Butter

When buying peanut butter, looking for quality ingredients is the biggest priority you'll have. Prioritize peanut butter containing natural, organic products, containing as few unpronounceable ingredients as possible. Peanut butter with no additives is always preferred and should also provide the best flavor!

 

Most of the same principles determining quality also apply to the CBD oil you intend to use. When buying your CBD try to make sure the product contains premium hemp, no artificial ingredients, and no active ingredients aside from the CBD itself.
