CBD oil promises pain, anxiety relief to Durango dogs” The Durango Herald

When Stretch, a 12-year-old pit bull mix, developed a cancerous tumor in his hip, his owner searched for anything that might help relieve the dog’s pain. “It was quite painful, and conventional medicine wasn’t helping him,” said Cammy Donnen, the dog’s owner. Donnen had read that cannabidiol oil, often called CBD oil, could help ease dogs’ pain. She searched pet shops in Durango for the product usually derived from hemp. But this was three years ago, and the only CBD oil Donnen was able to find was honey-infused in a straw and difficult to administer to a dog. Since then, CBD oils and CBD-infused treats for pets have become a multi-million dollar industry, widely available online and in Durango stores. In 2017, consumers nationally spent $13 million on hemp-derived CBD products for their pets. Last year, that number jumped to $48 million, according to New Frontier Data, a company specializing in cannabis statistics. The products are intended to address pain, improve sleep, increase appetite and calm anxiety, among other conditions, in dogs, cats, horses and other pets. The products do not have any psychoactive effects caused by THC in marijuana. While there is some strong anecdotal evidence for the products, the science supporting the effectiveness of the products in dogs is in the early stages. The Food and Drug Administration has yet to approve the products. While the science around CBD oil is emerging, it shows promise. A small study involving 16 dogs at Colorado State University showed CBD was effective in reducing the frequency of the dogs’ epileptic seizures, according to a news release from the university. Locally, pet owners have seen CBD improve the quality of life for older dogs who have multiple health issues, such as pain, loss of appetite and anxiety Stretch, Donnen’s pit bull mix, did not live to see the explosion of CBD products. But Donnen decided to join the industry after her experience with the honey-infused CBD. “I thought, there has just got to be a better way,” she said. A year ago, Donnen and her husband, Jeff Blevans, started Bloodhound Hemp Farms to sell CBD oils for dogs. This year, she plans to grow the hemp on her property and expand distribution to stores in town from her website. She sells bacon and peanut butter tincture flavors dogs lick straight from a dropper. “They just go crazy for it,” she said.

CBD Shows Promise for Pets – Colorado University

As caretakers of pets and lover of all animals, this report caught our attention in 2018. Dr. Stephanie McGrath, a neurologist at Colorado State University’s James L. Voss Veterinary Teaching Hospital, has revealed initial findings from a groundbreaking study to assess the use of cannabidiol, or CBD, for dogs with epilepsy. IS CBD for Dogs Effective? Among the questions she is pursuing: Is CBD effective? What is the amount or dose to recommend for canine patients? How is it absorbed in the body? What effect does it have on things like metabolism? (Looking at how a drug or medication is absorbed in the body and metabolized is referred to a pharmacokinetic analysis.) McGrath’s research team previously conducted a pharmacokinetic and safety study in 30 healthy dogs. This helped determine the approximate amount of CBD to use for the clinical trials at CSU. Dogs enrolled in the study were randomly assigned to a treatment or placebo group. The study was double-blinded, which means the veterinarians and medical staff did not know which dogs were being treated with CBD until the research was concluded.

Cancer and CBD: “The Antitumor Activity of Plant-derived Non-psychoactive Cannabinoids

When people ask me, why do I choose to consume CBD as part of my daily lifestyle, I ask them why are they not? What if I told you there was a 2015 study done by Sean D. McAllister, Liliana Soroceanu, and Pierre-Yves Desprez – that shows just one reason to consider CBD in your life – or that of a loved one. During the last decade, several studies have now shown that CB1 and CB2 receptor agonists can act as direct antitumor agents in a variety of aggressive cancers. For example, the second most abundant cannabinoid in CS is the non-psychoactive cannabidiol (CBD). Using animal models, CBD has been shown to inhibit the progression of many types of cancer including glioblastoma (GBM), breast, lung, prostate and colon cancer. source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4470774/ Read that again.
