It could be argued that an epidemic of anxiety is affecting the world today. CBD, a non-psychoactive compound of cannabis, has emerged as a promising candidate to alleviate anxiety in humans. But what can it do for our pets? This article asks the question of whether the same can be said for anxiety in dogs, particularly concerning barking and stress.

When derived from the hemp plant, CBD, the plant-based compound is made into an oil formula with therapeutic potential – known as CBD Oil. Although for some people CBD seems relatively new on the food supplement scene, the same cannot be said for the plant it comes from.
