Medical Marijuana for Dogs

[Akita2]

hi, have the same sad news on my dog. she is nearly twelwe and has very rare hearth cancer. She is now in very good condition since out great vet discovered it very early. I am decided to start to treat her with cannabis. Still not sure what would be thc best model, I have CBD therapy with 6 percent of CBD and 0,5 THC. Also have weed 8-8 CBD THC. Any ideas what would be the best ratio CBD THC for small dog? I want to start with very low dose

I would check your strain and see what it's stone is like,I used a few different strains that we're good for pain and a relaxant. tbh I didn't go too much into ratio I just mixed my left over weed and infused it with coconut oil for all the inflammation and infections etc
I hope this helps it definitely did for us!
Sorry to hear.

seems like a 1:1 ratio of CBD/THC works best for people. don't know of any studies on dogs

Medical Mass I have is very relaxant. The ratio is 1:1. Smoking it I was never fucked up like from shark shock.
However still want to start with commercial CBD oil. Then add my weed and infuse it with extra virgin olive oil. I fould the book Robert Silver about medical marihuana for dog, reading it thru. Will see, dog is now in good condition after recieved medicaments from vet. So fortunately we are not in situation that it is down and not eating. There is time window for miracle

My friends dog eats nugs and roaches instead of dog treats. The little bastard ate 3 oz out of a lb of harvest once, he loves the stuff. We love him tho. He gets pissed if you don't give him the roach after you put it out.....If you blow smoke in a dogs ear it goes straight to their blood stream.

I have my best friend on CBD oil....only thing that I have found that slows her cancer down.

Small update. Dog is 14 months on olive oil wih decent potency. It is mixture of cbd and thc strains. Dog is taking it daily with food. Intrestning thing is it works and small friend is full of energy. Begging 20 hours daily for food. If not, it sleeps. Prognosis was 3-4 months... dog is in very good condition.

What was important at the begging was dosing. Now she is taking quite strong doses , but we increased it very slowly. No chance to hurt her.

Something I noticed is hemp seed oil is supposedly good for older arthritic dogs. Nutiva 24 oz.

Please note I am not pimping Amazon because I really do not like them or Bezos. I try to get info out of the reviews but as we know with Burple LEDs on Amazon that the info is often crap.

I do kind of like Piping Rocks especially for essential oils

Supposedly Hemp Seed oil is also good for skin and scalp issues too. I think it supposedly have the same elements as the 3-6-9 omega oils. You can also get them from fish oils and in grains flax seed oil.

I personally would like to grow hemp but you need a huge scale with many many acres and buyers to make money.

My dog snapped a toe nail while we were playing ball one day. It was badly broken, bleeding and extremely painful for her.

We took her to the vet, they sedated her, cut the broken section off, cauterized the quick and bandaged her up. She was given a 24hr pain killer and they said she'd be fine.

She basically slept all day once we got her home, but she woke up (~12hrs later) in the middle of the night absolutely frantic. She was crying, hopping in circles, shaking(shivering), and holding her leg out at a weird angle. After about a half hour of trying to calm her down, with no effect whatsoever, I took a tiny bit of my RSO and rubbed it on her gums. She went from frantic, to curled up and sleeping in about 10 mins. We had to do the same thing again the next morning, but after that she was fine.

Cannabis works, but be very careful not to over do it. She ate a chunk of hash I dropped once and was completely fucked, couldn't move aside from lifting her head and wobbling it around for a few seconds. I carried her outside and we layed in the grass for a few hours untill she started coming around. It was scary though.

Yes, dosing is crucial. I have small girl of 4 kilos. She is 1/20 of my weight and getting 1,5 ml of quite strong stuff. Imagine I would take 30 ml of stuff. Could be quite trippy. So getting to 1,5 ml took really months. Have intention to help, not to hurt. For me it is miracle she is still with us.

pot is TOXIC to dogs and cats. never give them cannabis or extracts, or let them get into it. it can make them sick, and seem high. if they consume enough it results in death.

never give pets pot. ever.

not even once.

It's the THC that it is the issue, so formulations of treats or oils designed specifically for pets with ultra low THC content are generally safe and can be very beneficial for certain conditions. Start with a lower than recommended dose and go from there.

My dog was very gassy so I gave him a strong cookie to see if it would help but sadly I forgot to put the rest of the cookies away and he ate all my stash! It didn't help the gas at all but we still got a little buzz by passing around the dog and giving it a little squeeze.

Every time I light up, my littlest dog runs up my body into my arms. I’ve got 6 dogs that all hate the smell of smoke and stay away from my stash, except my chi-weenie. Chihuahua-dachshund mix. She’s 2, and like 5 lbs tops. I smoke my bowl and blow a couple hits at her and she licks at all the smoke and rubs her head against my chest in the cloud I’m blowing she absolutely loves it. Then she curls up and takes a nice long cozy nap.

Y’all saying I’m hurting LittleBitch by doing that? Or is it just if they eat it?

I’ve got an overactive hyper jerkoff Doberman female too, and I gave her a monster shotgun off the end of a blunt, and after a few sneezes she layed down and chilled for a solid 2 hours which she’s never done before or since.

My animals have eaten my stash before too and never gotten ill.

How is this shit toxic I don’t buy it.

Does anyone know anything about dosing for dogs? I have a 14 year old basset/dachshund mix. About 35 pounds. She is beginning to limp.

Last night I started her on 5 or 6 drops of "CBD & Terpene Rich Hemp Oil" (10mg CBD per 1 ml). But, I really have no idea of what the dosage should be.

If you have any info on this please post it. Even good guesses would be welcome.

Sorry to hear about your dog @DancesWithWeeds and I hope someone can help you here. Welcome to RIU and I totally love your name

I've been giving my dog about a 1/4 t. canabutter twice a day for about a week now. She is still limping some, she looks like she feels better. She doesn't like it but if it's on a dog treat with some peanut butter she eats it.
