dosing

How does my pet need?

First, find out how much your pet weighs. Dosing with CBD actually depends on many factors, like metabolism, tolerance, the condition you're treating, its severity, and individual body chemistry. You'll have to see what works best for YOUR pet, but to start, you can dose according to their weight. See below for our EASY DOSING CHARTS!

Start off LOW (half a regular dose, if possible) for the first 3-4 days, then increase to a regular dose. Giving too much too quickly can cause stomach upset, nausea or diarrhea.

Be consistent and give daily. Everyday use helps CBD build up in your pet’s system, and it may take 2–4 weeks before you see the full benefits. If you're not seeing results after 3-4 weeks, slowly increase to a stronger dose.

For ongoing issues (like arthritis, chronic pain, skin conditions, seizures): Long term daily dosing (often split into morning and evening) works best for steady support.

For occasional needs (like anxiety at groomer visits or thunderstorms): After the initial build-up phase, you can give CBD as needed. If there’s been a long gap without use, a few days of consistent dosing may be needed again to get the best effect. If you're treating situational anxiety, you can usually allow 30 minutes to take effect, however it can take anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 hours, depending on their metabolism.

If you still aren't seeing results, please email us at info@SerenityBowWow.com and we can help assess your situation and give you some tips! Sometimes people quit before the miracle happens so it’s worth giving it a fair shot – let us help!

Possible Side Effects:

CBD can interact with blood thinners, SSRI's and some other medications. Talk to your vet before giving CBD. Our treats are not recommended for dogs with Pancreatitis. (Although CBD itself is great for this condition, the ingredients in our biscuits and oil bottles may not be ideal.)

CBD itself is non-addictive and carries no risk of overdose, nor does it cause withdrawal symptoms. Overconsumption may cause nausea, diarrhea or vomiting.

Dry Mouth. Keep an eye on their water bowl as they will likely drink more than usual!
Loose Stool. This can be common in the beginning. It should normalize as time passes, but if it continues to be an issue, scale back on the dose and increase at a slower rate.
Diarrhea. If this happens, reduce the dosage before slowly increasing again or stop giving your dog CBD.

Drowsiness. If your dog gets drowsy, this can mean their body is sensitive to CBD, so you can scale back to a lighter dose. Mild drowsiness is generally safe and just means your dog is a bit more relaxed, but if they're too sleepy to play or eat normally, that's too much. The goal is calm, not couch potato!
Lowered Blood Pressure. CBD can trigger a temporary drop in blood pressure, especially if given in high doses. This can result in light-headedness/dizziness. Remedy by lowering the dose.
Nausea/Upset Stomach. Introducing a new supplement can sometimes trigger upset stomach. Always go low and slow when first introducing.
Increased Appetite. (Don’t be surprised if you catch them trying to order Chinese food!)
Dogs with pre-existing liver conditions should be monitored by a veterinarian, as CBD can occasionally cause a temporary increase in liver enzymes.
