Earth Buddy Pet, a trusted name in pet care, conducted a noteworthy and game-changing study in 2022 on the effects of CBDa (cannabidiolic acid) with CBD (cannabidiol) to improve joint health in dogs. With guidance from the Veterinary Cannabis Society and in partnership with MoreBetter, LTD, Earth Buddy Pet’s goal was to help pet owners make better decisions with data and facts, not just reviews, when using CBDa products for dogs.
Using two different products (including their Balance Hemp Extract and Mobility Hemp Extract), Earth Buddy partnered with the local Colorado pet store chain Poudre Pet & Feed to find participants to join the study. With around 30 dogs suffering from joint discomfort participating, the study lasted 26 days. Using three different veterinary pain assessments (Canine BPI, C.O.D.I., H.C.P.I), pet owners used Earth Buddy’s CBDa oil with CBD for dogs daily for around 20 days and answered daily questions.
