  • CBD Living Pet Adds Two More Flavours To Its Dog Soft Chews Line

    CBD Living Pet Adds Two More Flavours To Its Dog Soft Chews Line

    CBD Living Pet is expanding its Soft Chews Line for dogs with two new products for your furry friends. The new Sweet Potato Calming Chews and Bacon-flavored Mobility Support Chews for dogs feature 10 mg of Nano CBD and is 100% THC-free, vegan, and free of dairy, corn, soy and gluten. 

    Calming Soft Chews for Dogs comes in two flavours: Peanut Butter and Sweet Potato. Both are formulated with DigeZyme to promote satiety, Pediococcus Acidilactici NRRL B-50517 to aid digestion and Inulin FOS to balance dogs’ intestinal ecosystems. The dog treats include Glucosamine HCL, Methylsulfonylmethane and Turmeric to help reduce joint and cartilage inflammation and increase dogs’ ranges of motion naturally, along with a mouthwatering bacon flavor. 

    Our customers say their dogs have been begging (pardon the pun) for new flavors of our freshly baked Soft Chews. By adding a new Sweet Potato flavor to our existing product line and creating a new soft chew geared especially toward aging and arthritic dogs, we hope to expand great-tasting relief to more good boys and girls.

    CBD Living Pet COO Sean McDonald.

    CBD Living Pet Soft Chews for Dogs are manufactured using CBD Living’s proprietary water soluble technology, which homogenizes oil into water and breaks down CBD into nanoparticles. Once water-soluble, nutrients are passed directly to the bloodstream through the small intestine for fast, sustained relief. In addition, all CBD Living products are manufactured using 100% organic hemp grown on state-licensed hemp farms in Oregon and Colorado and are triple-tested by third-party independent labs, with the results posted online. All CBD Living products contain absolutely zero THC, and are made in the USA. 

    CBD Living products are sold nationwide in over 5,000 stores. All products are also sold online, with free shipping to all US states on orders over $75. 

    Who is CBD Living Pet?

    Founded in 2019, CBD Living Pet was created to allow dogs and cats to benefit from the same great quality – and relief – their owners are used to experiencing with CBD Living. With nearly 20 products, ranging from tinctures and gel caps to salves, shampoos and treats, it’s easy to give your pets all-natural relief from pain, inflammation & anxiety. Unlike giving human CBD products to cats and dogs, CBD Living Pet products are specially designed to solve problems uniquely suited to animals.

  • Can Your Pets Get High From A Whiff of Weed?

    Can Your Pets Get High From A Whiff of Weed?

    All stoners are well aware of the fact that lighting up a spliff, whatever the time or occasion is, comes with secondhand cannabis smoke. Marijuana may produce pleasurable effects in people, but what about pets? Can your cat, rat, dog or bird get high from the smoke of a blunt and how does it affect their health?

    Pot that makes humans high makes pets sick

    For pets, the mind-altering substance can be dangerous and even lethal. In 2019, the American Veterinary Medical Association issued a concern to Vets that they are seeing pets come in with respiratory problems and serious illness, due to people smoking inside and pets inhaling the smoke.

    Because humans are much bigger and heavier than household pets, an average-sized person will not be affected by a whiff of smoke. It’s a different story for pets, however. Their smaller size makes them a lot more sensitive to cannabis, making it possible for pets to get high if there’s a lot of secondhand smoke hanging around.

    What’s more, THC – the chemical that gives marijuana its high – is toxic to pets. It can cause vomiting, mild incontinence, in-coordination, depression, sleepiness or excitation, low blood pressure, low body temperature and seizures.

    Now you know that any marijuana product that contains THC is dangerous to your four-legged friends and should be kept well out of reach.

    CBD is an option for all

    On the other hand, one of the most powerful therapeutic substances ever to have come out of the marijuana plant is Cannabidiol, abbreviated as CBD. The list of benefits is ever-growing, but CBD isn’t only popular in the health and wellness industry. Many pet owners are turning to the magical herb to treat their furry friends, but is it safe and does it offer any health benefits?

    Analysts now predict the CBD pet care market will reach $125 million by 2022, making it one of the fastest-growing segments of the CBD market. Even household names like Martha Stewart are riding the weed wave, with a line of CBD product for pets.

    CBD pet care products come in the form of oils, edibles and topical creams or balms. Like the CBD products meant for humans, each of these CBD pet care product types appears to have a different effect on the body.

    As for healthcare, a 2018 study found that CBD can help increase comfort and activity in pets suffering from osteoarthritis. Other studies claim CBD may help reduce the number of seizures experienced by epileptic dogs.

    The various studies that have been conducted haven’t found anything super alarming about CBD for pets, but on the flip side, we still know very little about it. It’s therefore really important for pet parents to know this and use CBD with caution until there’s more information available.

  • Martha Stewart Develops CBD Products For Pets

    Martha Stewart Develops CBD Products For Pets

    Martha Stewart’s love for animals knows no boundaries. Like most pet parents, she takes the health and wellbeing of her furry friends very seriously. With their best interest at heart, the cook show host created a line of CDB products specially formulated for pets. Her involvement in the CBD pet industry breaks down barriers and encourages people to look at the plant differently.

    The Queen of Craft has welcomed hundreds of pets into her home over the past 40 years. With a list that includes 20 cats, 25 pooches, 10 chinchillas, and 1 Snoop Dogg, to name a few, Martha’s Ark is a place where even humans wish to board.

    With Snoopy leading the canine pack as Martha’s best friend, her move into cannabis is not entirely unexpected. The rapper is, after all, the one who introduced M’Diddy to the herb as their budding friendship blossomed at potluck dinner parties. In 2019, the Dogg pulled his homie another favour by hooking her up with Canopy Growth. Apart from being the largest cannabis company in the world by market value, the company is also behind the marketing of the Leafs by Snoop cannabis brand.

    Martha’s line of pet products aims to help pets deal with health issues without giving them pharmaceuticals. On her website, Martha highlights the benefits and risks of the use of CBD products on pets and why important to be educated before treating your pet with it.

    Market research companies report the pet CBD category grew 946 percent in 2019. Martha Stewart is not the only celebrity jumping onto CDB products like CBD balm for cats and dogs. Reggae-rock band 311, which has a line of human CBD tinctures and capsules, added a bacon-flavoured CBD oil for dogs to their product list.
