If you’ve ever wished for a gentle, natural way to help your furry friend feel better—whether they’re anxious, aging, or just not themselves—you’re not alone. More and more Canadian pet owners are discovering the potential benefits of CBD for pets, and it’s quickly becoming a go-to option for daily wellness.
Let’s break down what CBD is, how it works for pets, and how you can safely add it to your pet’s routine.
What Exactly Is CBD for Pets?
CBD (short for cannabidiol) is a compound found in the hemp plant that supports the endocannabinoid system—a system found in both humans and animals that helps keep things like mood, sleep, pain, and inflammation in balance.
Unlike THC, CBD won’t get your pet high. Instead, it may help them stay calm, comfortable, and more at ease throughout the day.
How CBD May Help Your Pet
While every animal is different, many pet parents in Canada report seeing improvements in things like:
-
Anxiety and stress – whether it’s separation anxiety, loud noises, or travel.
-
Joint pain or stiffness, especially in older dogs or large breeds.
-
Seizures – early studies suggest CBD may help reduce frequency.
-
Appetite and digestion – some pets may eat better with a little CBD support.
It’s important to remember that while CBD shows promise, it’s not a cure-all—and you should always talk to your vet before introducing anything new, especially if your pet has underlying health issues or is on medication.
How to Give CBD to Your Pet
There are a couple of popular ways to give pets CBD, depending on their size, taste preferences, and temperament.
CBD Oil for Pets
CBD oil offers flexibility in dosing and tends to work faster when given directly under the tongue. You can also mix it into your pet’s food if they’re picky. ResolveCBD’s CBD Oil for Pets comes in formulas designed for small, medium, or large pets—making it easy to match the dose to your companion.
CBD Dog Treats
If your pup loves snacks (and let’s be honest, most do), CBD Dog Treats are a stress-free way to incorporate CBD. Each treat is infused with 10mg of CBD and made with tasty, pet-safe ingredients like pumpkin and peanut butter. Perfect for daily use or those high-stress days.
Is CBD Safe for Pets?
Generally speaking, yes—CBD is considered safe for pets when it’s high-quality and used as directed. But not all CBD is created equal. Here’s what to look for when shopping:
-
Third-party lab testing to confirm purity and potency.
-
Low or no THC (always under 0.3%).
-
Pet-safe ingredients only—no xylitol, artificial additives, or harmful oils.
That’s why so many Canadians trust ResolveCBD. Their CBD Oil for Pets and CBD Dog Treats are crafted with full-spectrum CBD, carefully dosed for pets, and tested for safety and consistency.

FAQs About CBD for Pets
Is CBD legal for pets in Canada?
Yes! CBD is legal in Canada, including for pets. Just make sure the product is from a licensed source and clearly labeled for animal use.
How long does CBD take to work in pets?
Some pets may feel the effects within 30–60 minutes, especially with oil. For ongoing issues, consistent daily use over a few days can provide better results.
Can I give my pet the same CBD I use?
It’s not a good idea. Human CBD products might contain ingredients that aren’t safe for pets. Stick to CBD that’s made specifically for animals, like ResolveCBD’s pet line.
How much CBD should I give my pet?
Dosing depends on your pet’s weight and needs. A general starting point is 0.2–0.5 mg of CBD per pound of body weight. You can find detailed dosage guidelines on the CBD Oil for Pets page.
Whether you’ve got a senior dog needing joint support or a cat who hides every time there’s thunder, CBD might be the gentle solution you’ve been looking for.
