An increasing number of pet parents are having conversations with their veterinarians about the therapeutic potential of CBD oil for their pets. This growing area of interest highlights the need for accessible, natural treatments in veterinary care.

CBD (cannabidiol) is derived from hemp and interacts with the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which regulates various body functions in both humans and animals. This system plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis, cellular communication, and internal regulation.

With more anecdotal evidence and research emerging, the interest in CBD oil as a natural therapy for pets is on the rise. Studies are underway investigating its effectiveness in managing conditions such as epilepsy, skin issues, joint health, and providing palliative care.

At Avoca Drive Animal Hospital, we’ve successfully used high-quality CBD oil from PetCann to treat various health concerns, including controlling seizures, relieving pain, alleviating anxiety, and managing arthritis. Many of our patients have shown significant improvement, often reducing their reliance on other medications.
