FAQs
What is Hemp Extract?
Organic Hemp Extract is a botanical extract derived from our hemp that contains less than 0.3% THC on a dry weight basis. At Earth Buddy we like to call it “Colorado Style” hemp that is “non-intoxicating”. Instead of single molecule CBD (cannabidiol) or “Isolate CBD”, the Organic Hemp Extract we use contains a wide array of naturally occurring cannabinoids and terpenes that promote an entourage of benefits that engages the Endogenous Cannabinoid System (ECS).

What is Cannabidiol?
Cannabidiol is the prominent naturally occurring plant-based cannabinoid that is the most abundant molecule from the organic hemp we use in all of our products. Along with naturally occurring terpenes and other cannabinoids these plant compounds are showing great promise for daily supplementary use.

What is the difference between Hemp Extract and CBD?
Hemp Extract is our way of describing our pet products as being a full-spectrum extract that does not refine or process the raw botanical compounds once it goes through the extraction process. This means that the product will always contain the listed amount of cannabinoids (CBD, CBG, CBDa, CBN), but will also contain a wide variety of minor bio-active compounds like minor cannabinoids and terpenes. This speaks to the Entourage Effect that states the whole plant is great than the sum of its individual parts.
The biggest difference between Hemp Extract and CBD is that Hemp Extract is a full-spectrum of plant compounds that work in synergy and is a less processed and more natural product. CBD, single-molecule or isolate CBD is where they take the extract and remove all other botanical compounds with the use of chemical processes that leave them with pure CBD. Although many use these “isolate” products and experience benefits, Earth Buddy believes in keeping our products as true and natural as the plants we grow. Many of the chemicals used to make “isolate” are also harmful to the environment and therefore it is not something Earth Buddy will use in their pet products. We will always keep your pets safety and health in mind when formulating our products and that is why we believe full-spectrum, natural plant extracts will be the best for your Fur Buddy!
How does CBD for pets work?
Cannabidiol or CBD for pets activates and engages the ECS (Endogenous Cannabinoid System) to encourage balance or homeostasis. This molecule not only interacts with our pet’s ECS, but also acts on various systems in the body that manage discomfort and mood.
Will Hemp Extract get my pet “high”?
Colorado has one of the most well regulated Industrial Hemp programs in the world, in that they do not allow the levels of THC to exceed 0.3% at any step of the process. This means that all of our products will never have a level of THC over 0.3%, which will not get your pet “high”. Pets cannot tell us how they feel when under the influence of THC, so as a company we decided to always use hemp grown under the guidelines of Colorado Industrial Hemp program.
About Earth Buddy Pet
Earth Buddy came to life when we saw the incredible benefits of hemp in our own pets and saw a need in countless other pets for what we were doing. Keeva, our co-founder Sean’s 13yr old Collie mix, was the first inspiration due to her variety of health issues like brain function, sore joints, and low appetite. After adopting her from a family member, Sean’s hope was to give her some quality of life before she passed. Concerned they weren’t going to have much time with Keeva, Sean and his family decided to strictly feed and supplement her with species appropriate, whole food ingredients that were traceable and of the highest quality. In addition to upgrading her diet, Sean supplemented Keeva with medicinal mushrooms and full spectrum CBD from a local organic hemp farm. Keeva’s quality of life immediately improved and they were able to keep her healthy and happy for another 2 wonderful years.
