Pet Releaf Dispels Hemp Myths and Educates Pet Owners on the Benefits of CBD

DENVER — As the nation celebrates 4/20 and National Pet CBD Day on 4/21, Pet Releaf, the leading provider of CBD products for pets, is taking the opportunity to educate pet owners about the myths and truths surrounding hemp and CBD.

Myth: Hemp and marijuana are the same thing.

Truth: While hemp and marijuana are both members of the cannabis family, they have distinct differences. The primary difference is their THC content. Hemp contains less than 0.3% THC, while marijuana contains more than 0.3% THC, which is responsible for its psychoactive effects.

Myth: CBD is dangerous for pets.

Truth: While CBD derived from marijuana can be harmful to pets due to its high THC content, CBD derived from hemp is safe and non-toxic. Pet Releaf’s full-spectrum hemp-derived CBD products are specially formulated for pets and have undergone rigorous testing to ensure their safety and efficacy.

Myth: Hemp can get pets high.

Truth: Hemp contains very low levels of THC, the psychoactive compound in marijuana, which means it cannot get you or your pets high. Instead, hemp is known for its health benefits, including support for stress and occasional discomfort. Full-spectrum CBD products for pets are specially formulated to be safe and non-toxic, without producing any psychoactive effects.

Myth: CBD is a sedative that will make pets lethargic.

Truth: CBD is not a sedative, and it does not produce drowsiness in pets when administered at the appropriate amount. Instead, CBD can help to reduce stress, and promote relaxation in pets, which can have a calming effect without causing sleepiness.

Myth: Hemp is not a sustainable crop.

Truth: Hemp is a highly sustainable crop that requires fewer resources than many other crops. Hemp plants absorb carbon dioxide and help to improve soil quality, making it an environmentally friendly choice for farmers. Pet Releaf is proud to work with regenerative, sustainable hemp farms in the U.S.

Myth: Hemp is illegal.

Truth: Hemp was illegal for many years in the United States, but the 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp at the federal level. Today, hemp cultivation and processing are legal in most states, subject to specific regulations. Pet Releaf can be purchased in all 50 states and beyond.

Myth: Hemp is only used for CBD products.

Truth: While CBD products are the most well-known use for hemp, there are many other applications for this versatile plant. Hemp can be used to make clothing, paper, building materials, food products, and more.

Myth: Pet CBD is only for pets that have extreme stress

Truth: Pet CBD has many uses, even as a daily supplement for perfectly healthy dogs! Some common uses include:

Calming support for car rides, travel, fireworks, and thunderstorms

Healthy joints and flexibility support

To help keep dogs in peak condition

To enhance overall physical and mental well-being

Support for the immune system

Separation support

Proper digestion and bowel health

Support for skin health, itchiness, & seasonal allergies

Behavioral problem management, including destructiveness and hyperactivity

“We want to dispel the myths surrounding hemp and CBD and educate pet owners about the many benefits these products can offer their furry friends,” said President and Co-Founder Chelsea Gennings. “By using high-quality, full-spectrum, hemp-derived CBD products, pet owners can feel confident in the product they are purchasing.”

Whether a pet is young or a senior, has stress over fireworks or just needs some extra joint support, Pet Releaf can help.

8 Breeders and Seed Banks with Desirable Strains for 2024

Every cannabis grower hopes to have a plentiful harvest full of top-shelf buds. One of the best ways to meet that goal is by planting quality genetics . But with so many breeders out there, it may be difficult to determine the best cannabis seed banks for your needs. Cannabis seeds are technically legal across the United States since they contain less than 0.3 percent THC, according to the 2018 Farm Bill. In the last six years, dozens of online seed banks have popped up vying for market share. Offering feminized cannabis seeds and autoflowering seeds in many of the most popular strains , there are endless genetics from which to choose. The best cannabis seeds for an operator may vary depending on whether a grow is indoors or outdoors, their preferred growing medium, and the ultimate goal for the crop. For example, are you hoping to extract rosin or sell smokable buds? These questions must be considered prior to selecting marijuana strains and, by proxy, a source for those genetics....

Will This Be Our Year?

In 1919, a ban on alcohol exposed a cultural divide between urban and rural America and led to a spike in organized crime. Federal, state, and local governments struggled to adapt to the abrupt change in reality that came to be known as Prohibition. The task of enforcing new regulations initially fell to the Internal Revenue Service (thus the term “revenuers” for federal agents who hunted moonshiners) before being passed to the Department of Justice (DOJ). While enforcement was concentrated in rural areas and small towns—where some folks made decent livings by operating homemade stills—urban dwellers continued to enjoy alcohol courtesy of bootleggers and speakeasies. With the end of Prohibition in 1933, after the broken bottles, blood, and dust finally settled, an article in The United States News (now U.S. News & World Report) attempted to give the citizenry an idea of how the path forward might look. The open season for liquor-control laws is at hand. With repeal on December ...
