CBD and YOUR
PET'S HEALTH
Cannabidiol, CBD, is the relatively new kid on the Cannabis block that people can’t seem to know enough about. CBD is a non-psychotropic cannabinoid found in Cannabis. It is one of dozens of plant produced cannabinoids or “phytocannabinoids”, found in marijuana. CBD was misunderstood and undervalued during the underground revolution of Cannabis breeding in the 80’s and 90’s. Cultivators sought out
stronger and stronger concentrations of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) for the high, not understanding that CBD would later be shown to have anti-seizure, anti-inflammatory and even anti-cancer properties.
Today is a new day for CBD. There is great interest in its ability to help make people healthier. But it’s not just people that it helps.

Included in the mix is a small amount of THC, the psychotropic compound for which marijuana is famous (and infamous). But it won’t make your pet high. It was formulated for pets to ensure that doesn’t happen. It was formulated by Dr. Tim Shu, veterinarian and founder of VETCBD who saw great results for his furry and feathered patients.
