Does your dog suffer from joint pain, inflammation, arthritis or anxiety? Our 10 year old PomaPoo, Thomas, suffers from all of the above — and finally we have found a treatment that works for him.

CBD dog treats and oils are not for everyone, so please research carefully before giving them to your dog.
Thomas has always had some joint pain and anxiety, however, last Summer he got to the point where he could barely make it to the end of the block and back without limping from the pain. While Thomas is an older dog, this breed has an average life expectancy of about 13-16 years old. We decided it was time to figure out a natural remedy to help Thomas with his pain that we felt comfortable giving to him every day, and of course, didn't have negative side effects.
We reached out to our Instagram community and were given loads of advice — but the comment we found most useful was the idea of looking into cannabinoid dog treats. We were open to the idea right off the bat, but of course, had a lot of questions first.
Questions we had on CBD dog treats:
- Is CBD safe for my dog?
- Does my dog get high from CBD?
- Are there negative side effects to hemp dog treats?
- What can CBD treat for my dog?
- How quickly does CBD work for dogs?
We found overwhelmingly positive answers to all of our questions within a few hours of research. We decided to test CBD with Thomas to see if it helped him and to our surprise, not only did it alleviate his pain, it truly seems like he is a 5 year old dog again! We're beyond thrilled with the results and now give Thomas CannaCanine treats and oil daily.
Here are the answers we found on CBD for dogs:
Q: Is CBD safe for my dog?
A: Yes. "Our products contain CBD derived from USDA certified organic and non-GMO hemp. Our hemp does not contain any psychoactive properties." -CannaCanine
Q: Does my dog get high from CBD?
A: "CBD is not psychoactive. CBD (cannabidiol) is a compound found in cannabis and hemp. THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) can also be found in cannabis and it’s this compound that gives marijuana its psychoactive properties. Most CBD oils are just that … the beneficial CBD without the THC. And they typically come from hemp, not marijuana. In short, your dog won’t get “high” from CBD oil … he’ll get the relaxation without the intoxication." -Dogs Naturally Magazine
Q: Are there negative side effects to hemp dog treats?
A: For us, the benefits outweighed the possible side effects of CBD. Here are the side effects we found from Elixinol.
