How to Find the Right Dose of CBD for My Dog or Cat?

We often ask ourselves this question, concerned aboutfinding the most appropriate dosage of cannabis extract and noticing thebenefits as soon as possible. If you have already researched some products, youwill see that the way to specify the dosage and the amount of CBD vary from onebrand to another and it is not easy to establish a standard dose for differentproducts, so here are some "tricks" to better understand how Dosagethe hemp oil to our pets.

The first thing to do is to understand that, as a 100%natural product, the dosage can vary according to the weight and metabolism ofthe animal that consumes it. Normally, at lower weight, lower dose. I saynormally because here the energies come into play. For example, Kima weighs35kg, so it would correspond 2 drops per shot. Kima is a quiet and sleepybitch, so I look for a maintenance dose for her. Dallas, however, weighs 22kg,but unlike Kima, it has an overflowing energy and suffers from anxiety and fearof shrill sounds. By weight, Dallas would have a lower dose than Kima, butsince we intend to make a therapeutic use of CBD, Dallas and Kima ingest thesame dose.

Some suggestions:

Always start with the minimum dose, to be able to haveenough margins when increasing the dose. As natural products, cannabis extractsneed a routine and a certain consumption time before perceiving their effects.CBD oil barely has immediate effects, so it is important the perseverance,patience and, above all, the observation of our dogs and cats to discover anypositive change in their behavior or behavior. From Mimascota CBD we recommendthe following scheme to follow when supplying our products to your pets:

Start with the minimum dose during the first week, dividedinto 2 or 3 doses (minimum dose / minimum dose / minimum dose), and observe.

To increase the doses, it is best to gradually increase bytaking, allowing a week approximately between increases (minimum dose + 1 /minimum dose / minimum dose -> minimum dose + 1 / minimum dose + 1 / minimumdose -> minimum dose +1 / minimum dose + 1 / minimum dose + 1 and soon), not neglecting to observe carefully the behaviors and sensations of ourchildren.

We must respect the maximum doses; although an overdose willnever mean any intoxication in our pets, as long as the products do not havehigh concentrations of THC (remember that it is the component that causes"colocones").

Finally, the concentrations and amount of active ingredient(CBD) of each product must be taken into account. Sometimes the concentration(in%) or directly the amount in mg is specified. Here we are going to talkabout quantity in mg, whose quantity should always appear in the container.According to our experience, for cats and small dogs, the maximum amount in mgthat the product must provide is 350mg. In the case of medium and large dogs,between 350mg and 600mg is an adequate amount. If you want to use a productwith more cannabidiol, it is interesting to consult the veterinarian first.Keep in mind that the higher the dose, the smaller the dose, so you spend lessproduct, but also consider that you have less room to increase doses properly.

We hope that this explanation has been sufficient to clarify some doubts regarding the matter. With constancy, observation and a little common sense you will find the perfect CBD dose for your dog or cat.
