Calm, Cool, and Comfy: How Hemp-Derived CBD Helps Senior Dogs Feel Their Best

What Is Hemp-Derived CBD Anyway?

CBD (short for cannabidiol) is a non-psychoactive compound found in the hemp plant. It won’t get your pup “high” — but it will help them feel more balanced, relaxed, and supported from the inside out.

When sourced properly and used in safe doses, CBD can be a game-changer for older dogs dealing with common age-related issues like:

🦴 Joint Pain and Discomfort

Senior pups often struggle with stiff joints, arthritis, or old injuries. CBD may help by:

  • Reducing inflammation

  • Supporting mobility

  • Making walks, stairs, and zoomies a little easier (and less ouch-y)

😌 Anxiety and Stress Relief

Has your dog become more anxious with age? Maybe they pace during storms, hate being alone, or get nervous at the vet. CBD can:

  • Promote calm without sedation

  • Ease separation anxiety or noise phobia

  • Support emotional balance during stressful moments

🌿 Why We Love Hemp-Derived CBD at Stella’s SASS

We choose high-quality, THC-free hemp-derived CBD that’s:

  • Vet-approved

  • Sourced from trusted U.S. farms

  • Safe for daily use

  • Perfectly dosed for dogs of all sizes (especially our senior sweethearts)

Things to Know Before You Try It

  • Always consult your vet before starting a new supplement.

  • Start low and go slow — every pup reacts a bit differently.

  • Look for full or broad-spectrum options for the best results.

CBD isn’t a miracle cure, but it is a powerful tool in your senior dog’s wellness kit. Whether they’re slowing down or just a little more sensitive these days, CBD can help them feel more like themselves — happy, chill, and ready for whatever life throws their way (like that squirrel in the yard).

At Stella’s SASS, we’re here to help your pup age like a legend — comfortably, confidently, and with plenty of sass.

Stay calm and stay sassy,

Jen & Stella
