CBD peanut butter is peanut butter made exclusively for dogs and infused with cannabidiol (CBD). CBD peanut butter is a great way of adding cannabinoids to your dog’s health regimen since it is health-boosting, enticing, and easy to use. 

Like all pet CBD products, CBD peanut butter is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, based on statements from the World Health Organization (WHO), CBD for dogs is “generally well-tolerated, with a good safety profile.”

Before starting your pup on CBD peanut butter, we recommend talking to your trusted veterinarian. Vets are not allowed to prescribe CBD products but they can give you advice and answer your questions. Once you are in the clear about the potential benefits of CBD oil, follow the doctor’s advice on use and dose.

Can CBD Peanut Butter Make My Dog High?

No, CBD peanut butter will not make your dog “high”. CBD peanut butter cannot make your dog high because same as all pet CBD formulas it is made of the hemp plant. 

Namely, the cannabis plant includes two varieties, hemp and marijuana. Hemp is rich in cannabinoids (CBDs), that are health-boosting, while marijuana is rich in THC, which is a psychoactive ingredient that makes people feel “high”. THC is safe for humans but extremely toxic to dogs. Therefore, dog CBD products are made of hemp and are THC-free. 

Yes, CBD peanut butter works for dogs. The active ingredients (cannabinoids) from the peanut butter work by interacting with the dog’s endocannabinoid system (ECS). 

The ECS consists of three elements, including endocannabinoids, cannabinoid receptors, and enzymes. The endocannabinoid system is responsible for maintaining a state of health and balance called homeostasis. The hemp cannabinoids replace the body’s endocannabinoids thus supporting the ECS function. 

Therefore, CBD peanut butter cannot cure diseases or prevent a serious medical condition. However, it boosts the dog’s overall health thus supporting optimal physical and emotional wellbeing. CBD peanut butter is safe and works in puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. 

The are various benefits of CBD peanut butter for dogs. Here is a list of the conditions and situations in which CBD peanut butter can be helpful: 

  • Canine arthritis, joint pain, and mobility issues
  • Anxiety, hyperactivity, and compulsive disorders
  • Canine epilepsy and seizures
  • Cancer and mitigating the side effects of anti-cancer therapies 
  • Allergies and immune system support. 
How-to-Give-CBD-Peanut-Butter-to-Dogs

There are several ways in which you can give your dog CBD peanut butter. For example, you can scoop the butter from the container and let your dog lick its CBD peanut butter dose directly from the spoon. 

Or, you can spread the peanut butter over dog treats. Alternatively, in case you have extra time, combine the CBD peanut butter with a little bit of oats and fruits to make a dough, use cups to cut it into pieces, and prepare oven-baked cookies.

Can You Put CBD Oil in Peanut Butter?

Yes, you can put CBD oil in peanut butter and make your own pet CBD peanut butter. Peanut butter is nutritionally dense and health-boosting for dogs. It contains proteins, healthy fats, and since peanuts are members of the legumes family, even dietary fiber. To ensure maximum product quality you need to mix the peanut butter with full-spectrum hemp extract. 

You must be mindful about the type of peanut butter jar you are using as not all peanut butters are safe for canines. Some peanut butters contain ingredients that are potentially harmful to dogs, such as salt, xylitol, or cane sugar. Therefore, you must always double-check if the peanut butter is dog-friendly. 

The recommended CBD dosage for dogs is between 1 and 5 mg of CBD per day which you can give at once or divided into two servings. The exact CBD dose depends on several factors, such as the dog’s body weight, age, size, and underlying medical condition. 

The Honest Paws CBD Peanut Butter contains 160 mg of CBD per jar. One tbsp of CBD peanut butter has 5 mg of CBD and is suitable for dogs weighing less than 25 lbs. For pets over 25 lbs, two tablespoons (10mg CBD) is a good daily dose.

In case you have issues calculating your dog’s CBD dosage or any other questions, consult with your trusted vet and follow the veterinary doctor’s advice. If the CBD peanut butter does not work or makes your dog too sleepy, you should consider dosage modification. 

How Long does it Take for CBD Peanut Butter to Work in Dogs?

CBD peanut butter usually takes between 30 and 45 minutes to start working. Generally speaking, peanut butter is more fast-acting than CBD treats because it contains fewer ingredients and is more easily digestible. Depending on your dog’s medical condition or illness, it may take a few days of use before you can see visible improvements. 

Pet CBD peanut butter and other CBD products take more time to start working than traditional prescription medications. However, they are also a much healthier choice. Namely, CBD is a natural, holistic remedy with fewer and milder potential side effects than mainstream drugs.
