CBD is a cannabinoid, a chemical compound found inside the cannabis plant. It’s non-psychoactive in nature, has a plethora of healing effects and is mostly derived from industrial hemp, which means it’s 100% legal all over the world. Cannabinoids from plants fit into the mammalian body like a glove.

Here’s why...

Our dogs (like all other mammals) have an endocannabinoid system (ECS), which is a network of cellular receptors and activators that has an important role in regulating body functions like mood, sleep, pain, memory, appetite, inflammation, nausea, stress levels and much more.

This system operates through chemicals called endocannabinoids, that the mammal body produces in order to maintain balance in this system.

Unfortunately, our furry friends are sometimes not able to produce some of these chemicals on their own, which puts their system, and certain processes inside it, in dis-balance. Endocannabinoids are successfully replicated and stimulated through cannabinoids found inside the cannabis plant.

Supplementing with cannabinoids such as CBD puts the mammalian endocannabinoid system in balance once again and helps put an end to many agonizing conditions which are affected by endocannabinoids misfiring.

CBD does this mainly by interacting with several receptors: TRPV1, 5-HTIA and GPR55. Shortly upon consummation, CBD activates TRPV-1 receptors and helps balance the body temperature, chronic or acute pain and inflammation.

When 5-HTIA receptors are stimulated, there is a significant increase in dopamine secretion, which produces antidepressant and anxiolytic effects.

This is a whole plant extraction, preserving hundreds of beneficial compounds from the hemp plant, one of the main one’s being Cannabidiol (or CBD). Others include therapeutic phytocannabinoids such as CBG, CBC, CBN, terpenes, flavonoids, as well as essential vitamins, minerals, omega fatty acids, chlorophyll, as well as trace amounts of THC (<0.3%).

All of these compounds have a synergistic interaction with each other (also known as the Entourage Effect) and the more that are present, the better. This improves the overall therapeutic value of the hemp based CBD oil. You will also notice that full spectrum oil can be murky, dark, amber or golden in color, depending on the extraction method used. You want to always look for full spectrum, cannabinoid-rich hemp products for your pets, like Bailey’s CBD.

Note: Minor THC content can become diluted when made into final products so that it is either non-detectable, or at least less than 0.3% when lab tested. This helps ensure the final product is safe, non-toxic, but also effective and therapeutic for our pets in need.

This is CBD in its purest, crystalized form. This is a highly processed extraction, removing everything recognizable from the hemp plant except the molecule CBD. It is often found in the form of white powder, or crystals, and can be mixed into nearly anything. While CBD isolate is a pure form of CBD, it lacks other important therapeutic properties from the hemp plant such as minor cannabinoids, terpenes & flavonoids; which means there are less therapeutic properties in a CBD isolate product than in a full spectrum product. This also means that more volatile solvents are used to produce CBD isolate than full spectrum.

The overwhelming majority of all broad spectrum hemp extract is created using a fractionated distillation process, once the hemp plant is first extracted into full spectrum crude extract. The distillation process uses heat and pressure to separate the isolated cannabinoids & terpenes. Because heat and pressure is used, many of the therapeutic minor properties are burned off in the process. Also, the raw, acidic form of these cannabinoids, such as CBDa, CBGa, CBCa, CBNa, etc. are transformed via heat into their non-acidic state.

Dr. Silver has found in his research that these raw, acidic cannabinoids are highly therapeutic for pets, and can play a vital role in The Entourage Effect. Removing these acidic forms and the many other naturally occurring properties from the full spectrum hemp extract state reduces the therapeutic potential of the end product.

Many companies will use this fractionated distillation process because it is a sured way of removing any detectable amounts of trace THC content that may be present, although technically trace elements of THC will still be naturally present until processed even further into an isolated state. The victim in this process becomes the burned off terpenes, minor cannabinoids, and other naturally occurring properties that all add tremendous value to The Entourage Effect. What many overlook, is the fact that this is a highly processed extraction method, and there is a better way.

For ingestible and topical products, there is a less processed and safer method that can be used to dilute the THC level of a full spectrum hemp extract, using ingredients like hemp seed oil, or MCT coconut oil, which is the method we prefer here at Bailey's. Depending on the level of dilution, THC content can usually be remediated to a non-detectable state, or at least less than 0.3% THC, while retaining all of the naturally occurring properties from the hemp plant, including their acidic states, providing maximum therapeutic potential. Dr. Silver has found over many years of research that minor amounts of THC (<0.3%) can add tremendous therapeutic value for our pets in need, and can be safe & non-intoxicating when used under proper guidance. This is why every bottle of Bailey's comes with Dr. Silver's easy-to-understand suggested use guide.

CBD has shown to be very effective for your dog’s overall health as well as some specific medical conditions.

So, even if your best friend does not suffer from any specific condition, it is perfectly fine to give them CBD as a prevention or just as a daily supplement.

However, hemp CBD can also be used alone as a holistic method of treating certain conditions or in addition to other medications for a number of different conditions and symptoms.

Let’s break this down in more detail.

What Is A Full Spectrum CBD?

A full spectrum CBD contains the full spectrum of 100+ compounds naturally found in our plant ingredients. Researchers have named the “entourage effect” which basically shows a synergistic effect when these natural compounds are found together versus when they are chemically isolated. Bailey's is a full spectrum CBD. 

Is Bailey's CBD Safe For Dogs and Cats?
