Dog CBD FAQs: Answers to Common Questions About CBD for Dogs

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of over 120 chemical compounds known as cannabinoids found in hemp plants. It is non-intoxicating in its effects and has been shown to have a variety of positive health and wellness benefits — not only in humans, but in our furry friends as well! Kradle BotaniTek™ +CBD products contain broad-spectrum CBD to help reduce stress and anxiousness in dogs.

Cannabinol (CBN) is another non-intoxicating cannabinoid that comes from hemp plants. One of its most powerful benefits is thought to be improving quality of sleep. Sleepy CLEANZzz BotaniTek™ +CBD is currently our only product that contains CBN.

Though both belong to the cannabis plant family, hemp and marijuana are not the same thing. The most significant difference between the two is the amount of tetrayhydrocannabidiol (THC) — the psychoactive element that produces the "high" sensation — they contain. Hemp refers to a cannabis plant that contains a THC level of 0.3% or less, while marijuana is considered a cannabis plant that contains more than 0.3% THC content. Kradle BotaniTek™ +CBD products contain broad-spectrum CBD with no detectable THC.

Please follow the dosage instructions listed on each product, and do not exceed two daily servings of any combination of Kradle products. Our products have been formulated to act quickly and reliably, but, every dog is different, and these products may take longer to work in some than it does others. Don’t worry if you don’t see a change right away, and stick with the correct serving size. Giving your dog more than the recommended amount may cause side-effects, such as an upset stomach or drowsiness.

BotaniTek™ is our patent-pending formulation and the backbone of all Kradle products. It is a proprietary blend of pure, proven, human-grade ingredients that work naturally with a dog’s endocannabinoid system to help calm them safely and quickly.

Both feature our proprietary BotaniTek™ formulation, however, Kradle BotaniTek™ +CBD products contain broad-spectrum CBD and BotaniTek™ Calming do not.

A good starting point is to determine whether you want an everyday or occasional solution. Our Daily Soft Chews and Sleepy CLEANZzz are intended for daily and nightly use respectively. All other Kradle products are safely formulated for daily use but are also great “once-in-a-while” solutions. The easiest and quickest way to figure out what your dog loves is through our Bundles.

No. These products contain broad-spectrum CBD derived from the highest-quality American-grown hemp that's farmed according to responsible standards, and do not contain any detectable amounts of THC.

Your dog will absolutely not get "high" from these products. Kradle BotaniTek™ +CBD contains broad-spectrum CBD with no detectable THC and is not psychoactive in any way.

You should start to notice reduced stress or anxious behavior in your dog within 30 minutes. Kradle products are formulated to help calm your dog quickly and reliably, but, since each dog’s system is a bit different, these products may take longer to work in some than others.
