Appreciate the question — let's unpack this. It's understandable to explore every option when your dog is battling cancer. Many pet owners are curious about the benefits of CBD and THC oils. CBD, a compound found in cannabis, is non-psychoactive, meaning it won't make your dog "high," and it's often used for pain relief, reducing inflammation, and calming anxiety in pets. THC, on the other hand, is the psychoactive component and can be harmful to dogs in large amounts.
While some studies and anecdotal evidence suggest CBD might help manage pain and improve quality of life for dogs with cancer, it's crucial to approach its use cautiously. Starting with a small dose and gradually increasing under veterinary guidance is ideal. Avoid giving THC oil without a vet's approval as it can cause significant health issues like confusion, lack of coordination, or even seizures.
Watch for signs of distress such as excessive drooling, vomiting, panting, or lethargy, which could indicate an adverse reaction. If you notice these, seek veterinary help immediately.
For personalized advice and to discuss whether CBD might benefit your dog specifically, consider booking a video consult with one of our veterinarians through Dial A Vet.

It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
