If you’ve noticed that your pet suffers from anxiety — especially with Fourth of July fireworks and other loud noises — one great way to naturally help calm your cats and dogs stress is with CBD. In fact, studies show that CBD might be even moreeffective for our pets than it is for humans.
“Cats and dogs have more receptors for CBD than humans do, and because of that, we’ve had some great feedback from customers,” said owner Tracy Klimczak.
Pet owners have reported that CBD has helped their pets in a variety of ways — one cat was able to feel less anxious during a crosscountry car ride, it’s helped a high-energy puppy relax, many dogs feel relief from aging pains, and it’s even minimized anxious behavior in a rescue dog.
“This one poor dog was continually going and staring at a wall for hours at a time and our customer gave him one of the treats. Within fifteen minutes the dog was up and moving around, and was no longer staring at the wall,” said Tracy.
CBD can also help manage any separation anxiety pets might feel as many people are going back to their offices following the pandemic. Tracy and his wife, Your CBD Store co-owner Tiana, have even seen the benefits for their own dog, Zona, who is now able to wind down at the end of the day with CBD treats.
“Anytime you’re getting your dog on a medication or a change of diet, you do have some concerns, and what we were concerned with even though we know CBD isn’t a pharmaceutical or narcotic, is that we didn’t want our dog to lose her personality,” said Tracy. “She’s very active but by seven or eight at night we didn’t want to be playing fetch anymore, so we’ve found that by giving our fur baby some of the peanut butter snacks, it calms her down just enough.
Your CBD Store offers three different types of products for your pet — tinctures in an oil form that can be added to the pet’s food, treats in different flavors, and even a balm that can help moisturize pets paws and dog’s noses for pain relief and extra moisture during Arizona’s hot summer weather.
“This time of year, when our pets go in the backyard, a lot of our desert landscaping can be very hot and rough on their paws, which can get even more scratched up this time of year. So being able to rub this on their paws and their noses helps with their overall pet health,” said Tracy.
Your CBD Store offers different dosages of its products and can work with you to determine what the best product and dose is for your pet depending on their size and needs.
“We’re a small familyowned business. We want people to come in and ask questions so we can help them,” said Tracy. “That’s why we got into the business. We want to be here to coach them and even give them samples to take home to their cats and dogs if they’d like.”
