So what is the best oil for you and your pet?
We have reviewed dozens, if not hundreds of labels in the industry and most don’t make it past even the website evaluation. When the site won’t tell you who they are, has no social media or community presence, and only has the same-old content about CB1 and CB2 receptors but doesn’t tell you what cultivar they use or where and how ‘their’ hemp is grown, you know you’ve found a cheap white-label and they don’t know or care what is in those bottles.
Applying the criteria above and our own experience in the hemp industry has lead us to recommend only two labels for now. If you know of one which meets this criteria and we should evaluate we’re happy to hear recommendations. The hemp industry is changing fast and the good companies should remain.
First – HempMy Pet for being the only pet label clinically studied and proven effective by independent veterinarians.
Not only do they hit all the quality and consistency checkmarks, putting their oil in the hands of independent veterinarians to hear what THEY have to say about the effects is a huge differentiator between HempMy Pet and the others. Again, this is IN ADDITION TO:
- Cultivar Specific – including intentional and effective terpene profiles
- Organic
- Full Spectrum
- 3rd Party Tested
- Veterinarian Recommended
- Money Back Guarantee
Second – CBD Dog Health also offering a full spectrum formula with different blends to best suit your pet’s needs.
Admittedly, we’re breaking our own rule about being cultivar specific for consistency and confirming the label controls the grow operations. CBD Dog Health makes no such claims, but a review of the readily-available series of CoA’s gives us peace of mind. Not just because they are there but because we’ve actually downloaded and looked at them. Everything from cannabinoid profiles to pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, residual solvents, etc. are covered and pass. What is missing and unknown are the terpene profiles. Whether or not this lack of consistency matters to you and your pet is to be determined. Otherwise, CBD Dog Health hits most of the criteria, and are at least 20% less expensive than HempMy Pet.:
Cultivar Specific – including intentional and effective terpene profiles- Organic
- Full Spectrum
