Cannabis for Dogs with Cancer | Dr. Gary Richter Deep Dive

Do cannabis and CBD have benefits for dog cancer? Why doesn’t my vet recommend products? How do I know which are worth my money?

SHOW NOTES

Yes, there are benefits, for sure. But a thorny wall of legal, economic, and pharmaceutical complications make it harder for vets to share the growing knowledge. Dr. Gary Richter walks us through the benefits, hazards, and far-reaching implications of this uncharted territory. CBD has a future in veterinary medicine, but we’re not sure how close it is.
