Frequently Asked Questions

CBD (cannabidiol) is a naturally occurring plant compound. It works by interacting with your pet's endocannabinoid system (ECS), a complex network of receptors found throughout the body that helps regulate important functions like mood, pain response, inflammation, sleep, and immune function. When your pet takes CBD, it supports this system to help maintain balance and overall wellness. CBD is not a drug — it is a supplement that supports your pet's natural biological processes.

Yes, CBD is widely regarded as safe for dogs and cats when administered properly. Our products are veterinarian-formulated by Dr. Josh Sosnow, DVM, with over 25 years of veterinary experience. They are manufactured in an FDA-compliant, cGMP-certified facility and independently tested by third-party laboratories for purity, potency, and safety. That said, we always recommend consulting with your veterinarian before starting any new supplement, especially if your pet has existing health conditions or takes other medications.

Absolutely not. CompanionCBD products are made with pure CBD isolate that contains non-detectable levels of THC (0.0%). THC is the psychoactive compound found in marijuana that causes the "high" sensation. Our products go through rigorous testing to ensure every batch is completely THC-free. Your pet will experience the calming and wellness benefits of CBD without any psychoactive effects whatsoever.

Yes. CBD containing less than 0.3% THC was federally legalized by the 2018 Farm Bill (Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018). CompanionCBD products are made with pure CBD isolate and contain non-detectable levels of THC (0.0%), making them legal in all 50 states. Every batch is American-made, independently lab-tested, and fully compliant with federal and state regulations.

While we cannot make medical claims about CBD, many pet parents and veterinary professionals report positive outcomes with CBD for pets experiencing anxiety (separation, noise, travel), joint discomfort and mobility issues, occasional pain and inflammation, age-related wellness challenges, seizure management (as part of a broader treatment plan), general stress and behavioral issues, and supporting overall wellness and immune function. Every pet responds differently, and we recommend discussing your pet's specific needs with our veterinary team through our free Ask-A-Vet service.
