My dog has major anxiety from thunderstorms, fireworks, and other stressful situations. Does anyone here have experience with giving their dog CBD? I’ve tried other stuff, but nothing works.
CBD doesn’t produce serious side effects in dogs. The most common found in studies have been mild diarrhea and drowsiness. So it’s widely accepted that it’s safe for most dogs. There aren’t many studies out yet that confirm that CBD is effective for anxiety, but there’s a lot of anecdotal evidence from pet owners that it can help with stressful situations like fireworks, thunderstorms, vet visits, etc. I encourage you to speak to your vet about CBD for your pup. Also, see my reviews of the best CBD oil for dogs to learn more about the benefits and how to choose a safe product. You also have the option of CBD dog treats and calming supplements.
Personal anecdote, but we have given our dog CBD to help with stressful situations like traveling and before fireworks without negative side effects so far. Make sure you follow the dosing guidelines.
