Q: Will your products get me high?
A: Nope! Most people have also heard of a cannabinoid called THC, which is the compound in cannabis that creates a high effect. Unlike THC, CBD (cannabidiol) is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid so our products will not get you high. There are small amounts of other cannabinoids including CBG, CBC, Terpenes and a very small amount of THC.

Some users report a calming, relaxing feeling from CBD while others do not experience this effect.

CBD rich cannabis oil can be used to treat seizures, nausea, stress, anxiety, arthritis, back pain, symptoms of cancer, and gastrointestinal issues, among other health conditions in pets. Relief is provided as the cannabinoids interact with the endocannabinoid system. Pets, especially K-9’s have several types of CBD receptors in their bodies. CBD is taken in through CB1 receptors in the pets muscles, brain, lungs, reproductive system as well as the gastrointestinal track.
Pets also have a whole other set of receptors called CB2 receptors, which absorb CBD and other cannabinoids through the spleen, bones, skin and glial cells. Having these different receptors through out the pet’s body makes the CBD and other cannabinoids very effective for them.
