Benefits of CBD for Dogs
Dogs and cats like humans have an endocannabinoid system (ECS) that allows them to benefit from CBD. The endocrine system allows the active ingredients in CBD to help relieve many symptoms.
The ECS’s primary function is balancing all of the other systems of the body. When ECS is balanced, pets will be more relaxed in stressful situations without dipping below healthy energy levels, making for great companions.

1
Anxiety & Stress
Pet owners can use CBD as a means of calming down their anxious or stressed pets. CBD encourages pets to feel more relaxed because of the way it interacts with pets’ endocannabinoid systems.
If your dog is having a hard time dealing with the fireworks and loud noises during celebrations such as New Year's day and even Christmas, giving him CBD oil is a good idea.
It can help dogs that are susceptible to anxiety, even as it helps with minor things such as allergies and arthritis in their joints. It has been reported that more than a hundred thousand pet owners have already used it so you also might want to give it a try. You'll be glad that you did.

Arthritis & Pain
Pain, stiffness, and mobility problems in pets that suffer from Osteoarthritis can make it difficult for them to live their best lives. If you want to help alleviate their discomfort without spending a fortune on expensive treatment, Duke’s Naturals CBD oil or treats may be the best option for you.

Cancer
CBD oil can also be used in combination with traditional treatments for cancer. Unlike many other pharmaceutical medications, CBD does not cause the “chemo-brain” that typically results from conventional treatment regimens. You can find tincture drops - check out our store.
CBD oil also helps reduce symptoms of depression and stress, which is why it’s often used in combination with other treatments for cancer. CBD has proven to be a great alternative to many conventional medications that might otherwise leave your pet feeling lethargic or out of sorts.

Inflammation
The benefits of CBD for dogs have been scientifically proven. One study showed that animals who were given THC/CBD oils had no adverse cognitive effects and did not display any signs of intoxication or lethargy, which can be common among other cannabis-based products. This study showed that the medications could also serve as a safe alternative to other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications for pets.
5
Seizures
CBD can also help with chronic pain and digestive problems. It can reduce appetite, which is common in overweight dogs – especially older ones. CBD can help support the body’s endocannabinoid system, and can even help with controlling epileptic seizures.
6
Skin Allergies
Dogs can also benefit from CBD for allergies. Dogs with skin allergies have been seen to improve after taking CBD oil.
CBD Oil has been found to lessen the symptoms of inflammatory skin conditions like Atopic Dermatitis in dogs, a condition where the immune system attacks the skin resulting in dry flaky skin. Topical treatments of CBD oil have been shown to reduce these symptoms and even help restore healthy cells and tissue in cases where the animal has already suffered from inflammation.
