To minimize the risk of these side effects, make sure that you only give CBD to your pets in small doses. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not yet issued the safe proper dosage for giving CBD to animals. Hence, it’ll be safe to assume that any kind of CBD product that you’re going to use on your pets will most likely have a side effect. So, it’s advisable to start giving your pets small doses of CBD and closely monitor if there are any side effects.
