CBD Oil for Dogs

To view the recommended dosage for our CBD oil for dogs (and other CBD products), check out our handy CBD Dosage Chart for Pets. It's important to know that CBD dosage can depend on many different factors, such as:

• Weight
• Age
• Diet
• Tiredness
• Health Condition

When you’re looking to buy high-quality CBD oil for dogs, you may notice that there are many different sizing and dosage options, plus things like broad and full spectrum CBD. We’ll get to the broad vs. full spectrum CBD later, but for now let’s talk dosing.

Keep in mind that there are no official recommendations for CBD products by the FDA. So, if your pet is new to CBD, start with lower dosages at first and then gradually increase them until your pet feels comfortable. It might initially seem confusing, but we can teach you how much pet CBD oil to give your dog.

The rule of thumb is to use 0.25 mg of CBD oil per pound of body weight for a standard dose. For example, a dog that weighs 80 pounds can start with 20 mg of CBD oil for dogs. In this case, a 600 mg bottle may give you just enough for 30 doses.

On the other hand, small dogs weighing 20 pounds may only need 5 mg of CBD oil per dose. In this case, a 150 mg CBD oil bottle will give you just enough for 30 doses. You can also buy this bottle for medium dogs.

For a stronger dose, double the potency to about 0.5 mg CBD oil per pound of body weight. The same 80-pound dog will now need about 40 mg of dog CBD oil as an extra-strength dose. In this case, that 600 mg bottle will last about 15 doses, which will last about two weeks with daily administration. We recommend this strength for larger dogs.

Of course, if your pet is new to CBD, you may want to lower the dose to even less than the standard dosage recommendation. Depending on the CBD products you have (it's easiest with things like CBD oil tinctures and CBD dog treats), you can start with half the standard dosage and then work your way up until you notice the effects you desire.

As always, consult a vet for more specific advice regarding pet CBD products. They can examine your dog and give sound advice.

It’s simple, we make our pet CBD oil products by separating the CBD extract from the hemp plant and combining it with a carrier oil. We do this in the cleanest and safest way.

First, to separate the CBD from the hemp plant, it must undergo a process called extraction. There are several ways to extract CBD: ethanol, solvent, or CO2. The CO2 extraction method is by far the cleanest. It doesn't leave any solvent residue or byproducts that may harm your pet's health.

CO2 extraction from the hemp plant is more expensive and can take longer. But we at HolistaPet take every measure to ensure your pet receives the highest-quality product possible.

Once we have the CBD extract, we combine it with hemp seed oil. This hemp extract is an excellent choice for a carrier oil as it is exceptionally rich in nutrients, including omega fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and proteins.

At HolistaPet, our biggest priority is making sure your pet gets everything they need to live a healthy, happy life. As pet owners ourselves, we understand what it takes to care for our beloved furry friends and that they ALWAYS take priority in our lives. We want to help you get there and provide them with the best quality of life that they can live.

Introducing CBD oil into your dog's regimen can be great for their overall wellness. But how do you ensure your furry friend gets the right amount? It's all about understanding both the product you're using and your dog's needs.

The most direct way to administer CBD is through oil, which you can measure precisely. Following the recommended dosage on the product label or our dosage chart is crucial. CBD dosage is typically based on your dog's weight and health needs.

It's also important to consider your dog's palate and preferences. Some dogs may not enjoy the taste or texture of CBD oil. In such cases, other methods, such as mixing with food or infusing in treats, might be more successful. Consistency is key in any CBD regimen, so go ahead and find a method that works reliably for your pet.

Direct Feeding Method

Administering CBD oil directly ensures your dog gets the full benefits quickly. Place the CBD oil onto your dog's tongue or add it directly to their mouth with a convenient dropper bottle. This method allows fast absorption into the dog's system for quicker effects.

Pet parents should be gentle and patient, especially if their dog is new to wellness products. Begin by holding the dropper near their mouth to gauge their reaction. If they're comfortable, gently administer a small amount of CBD oil onto their tongue and reward them with a treat to foster a positive experience.

Remember to use high-quality CBD oil with a well-marked dropper. Doing so ensures consistent dosing, especially when introducing CBD to your dog's health regimen. Always watch your dog after giving CBD oil to see how they react and adjust the dose as your vet or the guidelines suggest.

Add-to-Food Method

Adding CBD oil to dog food is an effortless and effective method to administer CBD. Is your dog sensitive to new tastes or textures? This method effectively masks the CBD flavor and guarantees your dog consumes the full dose without fuss.

To add CBD oil to your dog's food, mix the prescribed amount into their usual meals, whether dry kibble, wet food, or homemade dishes. Stir well to ensure the oil is evenly distributed and avoid clumping that could lead to inconsistent dosing.

Some dogs may be hesitant at first due to the new scent or slight change in flavor. However, most dogs adapt quickly. For best results, use this method during a normal feeding time when your dog is typically hungry and less likely to be picky about changes to their food.

Add-to-Snack Method

Another popular and effective technique is to use snacks to administer CBD oil. This approach is particularly useful for fussy eaters who look forward to treat times.

Start by choosing a snack that can absorb a few drops of CBD oil. This snack can be a small piece of bread, a special treat, or a piece of meat. Apply the recommended CBD oil dose directly onto the snack and let it soak in for a few minutes. This technique ensures that the oil is fully absorbed and prevents it from dripping off when offered to your dog.

Be sure to select snacks that your dog enjoys. This method relies on your dog eating the entire snack to receive the full CBD oil dosage. Observe your dog as they eat the CBD-infused snack the first few times. If they eat it happily without hesitation, this method can be a simple and effective way to incorporate CBD oil into their daily routine.
