🐾 CBD for Pets: Uses and Benefits Every Pet Owner Should Know

 

If you’re a pet parent, you know our furry friends aren’t just animals—they’re family. And just like us, pets can face challenges with stress, joint discomfort, allergies, and even age-related issues. That’s where CBD comes in.

At Wholesome CBD & Supplements, we focus on providing organic, locally made, and affordable CBD options—not only for people, but for pets too. Let’s explore how CBD may support the health and comfort of your four-legged companions.

 

 

🐶 What is CBD for Pets?

 

CBD (cannabidiol) is a naturally occurring compound found in hemp plants. Just like humans, dogs and cats have an endocannabinoid system (ECS)—a network of receptors that helps regulate mood, pain perception, sleep, immune response, and overall balance.

When your pet takes CBD, it interacts with this system, promoting calmness and comfort without causing a “high.”

 

 

✨ Potential Benefits of CBD for Pets


1. Easing Anxiety & Stress

  • Separation anxiety when you leave for work.

  • Noise sensitivity during thunderstorms or fireworks.

  • Travel stress on road trips or vet visits.

CBD may help calm nerves naturally, giving pets (and their owners!) more peace of mind.

 

2. Supporting Joint Health & Mobility

Aging dogs and cats can struggle with arthritis, hip dysplasia, or simple stiffness. CBD’s anti-inflammatory properties may help:

  • Reduce discomfort in joints.

  • Support easier movement.

  • Encourage more playful activity.

 

3. Skin & Allergy Relief

Pets with dry skin, hot spots, or seasonal allergies may benefit from CBD oils. These can help soothe itching, reduce redness, and promote healthier coats.

 

4. Seizure Support

One of the most studied uses of CBD in pets is seizure management, especially for dogs with epilepsy. While research is ongoing, many pet parents report fewer and less intense episodes when using CBD under veterinary guidance.

 

5. Overall Wellness & Balance

Beyond targeted relief, many owners use CBD daily to support:

  • Restful sleep.

  • Balanced mood.

  • Healthy appetite.

  • General well-being.

Paws-itively Life-Changing!

I can’t say enough great things about this CBD oil for dogs! My German Shepherd, Addie, is 9 years old and had been showing signs of stiffness and anxiety, especially during storms. Within days of starting the CBD oil, I noticed a huge difference—she’s moving more comfortably, seems more relaxed, and is even playful again. It’s like I got a little piece of her younger self back! The dosing was easy, she likes the taste, and it’s become a simple part of her daily routine. This product truly gave my best friend her spark back. Highly recommend for any pup needing a little extra comfort and calm.

An absolute savior

Our dog Darcy has terrible anxiety issues when someone is setting off fireworks in our neighborhood. Full on panting like she ran a marathon and trembling mightily. This is the only thing that calms her down! Thanks

CBD tincture for my dog

My dog loves the CBD. We will ask her what kind she wants, chicken or beef, she will point it out with her nose. I definitely plan on buying from you guys again, but most of all, I wish that you guys would come to Grand Rapids

Kitty loves it

My cat is older and has some joint issues. Nighttime is more of a problem for her because we keep the house cooler then. Once I started using a couple of drops on her evening meal she is less restless and agitated in the night and seems to sleep through most of it easily. Great product for keeping her comfortable.

Helps a lot!

I have an elderly dog. I found this at a holistic fair one year, and bought a couple of bottles. Since then my dog has aged so much and is in pain most days. This helps so much to help keep his moving and active. I sadly have just ordered the last bottle I will be ordering for him as he is 17 years old, and is needing the cbd everyday to help with his pain. But this will help until I get to see him one final time.
