PREFACE

M y background is in science. My Ph.D. is in experimental psychology and neuroscience. I like Western medicine. I dont do crystals or reiki or faith healing or homeopathy. I am skeptical of acupuncture but concede it probably has its place. I tried it with my dogs twice, and it didnt work, so I think its place is not with me. Show me auras and feelings and energy fields, and I remain unconvinced when it comes to medicine. Show me chemicals and neurotransmitters and data points, and Im listening.

So when I heard about medical cannabis for pets, I was skeptical. It sounded a little too much like a New Age touchy-feely a stoned dog is a happy dog approach for me.

For starters, there was the credulity-begging long and diverse list of claims: antianxiety, antiseizure, anti-inflammatory, antibacterialwhat was next? Anticancer? Oh yeah, antitumor also on the list. That sounded suspiciously like snake oil to me.

But theres a fine line between being skeptical and closed-minded, so I (grudgingly) decided to read some of the science (and at that point I was using the term loosely) before shutting my mind to it.

I was about to get an education. First, medical cannabis isnt about getting stoned. Medical cannabis for pets doesnt even have significant THC in it. What a scam! I thought. Whats the good of hemp without THC? Then I learned that THC is far from the only significant cannabinoid in cannabis, and that in fact another, cannabidiol (CBD), is the one that seems to be providing the greatest health benefits. And cannabidiol has no psychoactive effects. So much for stoned dogs lounging around the house.

The more I delved into the subject, the more I found that this was no esoteric fringe science, but a robust area of research. One peer-reviewed paper after another presented data that supported health benefits of cannabinoidssome tentatively, some convincingly. That long list of claims? It turns out theres a valid scientific reason for it: cannabinoid receptors are literally all over the body, acting as homeostatic directors of myriad other neurotransmitters.

BUT CAN IT HELP YOUR DOG?

During my research, I conducted many interviews with pet owners. Anecdotal evidence doesnt carry the weight of controlled scientific experimentation, but talking to these people was compelling. In many cases they reported that cannabinoids had saved their dogs lives, or at least dramatically improved their quality of life.

Do I believe cannabinoids are miracle workers? No. I dont believe any substance can do it all. But I am convinced cannabinoids have some tantalizing and very likely major health benefits.

Which brings me to the big question: Would I give cannabinoids to my own dogs? The short answer is yes. And if you know me, thats a huge turnaround, because my dogs are the center of my worldjust as I am sure yours are the center of your world. And we all want whats best for them.

CHAPTER 1:
CANNABIS, HEMP, & MARIJUANA

T he indisputable benefits of cannabis for the treatment of a variety of medical conditions have brought about the widespread cultural acceptance of medical marijuana. Not only are people more open to cannabis as a natural therapy, they are also considering this option for their dogs.

This surge of interest has brought to light the general confusion between marijuana and hemp, which involves both legality, chemical composition, and therapeutic application. These differences are especially important when it comes to medical cannabis for pets.

BACKGROUND

Cannabis has been grown for thousands of years for rope, fabric, oils, and foods, for its psychoactive effects for religious purposes, and most significantly for our discussion, for its medical purposes.
