Hemp CBD in Bulldogs and French Bulldogs SAFETY
CBD is extracted from the Cannabis plant, which also produces the popular hallucinogenic chemical extract THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). In contrast to THC, the CBD extract does not cause any “mind-altering high,” nor does it cause any psychotropic effect, therefore making it safe for your bulldogs.
CBD holds a wide range of medical benefits, such as
- Pain relief
- Calming
- Anti-anxiety
- Relaxation.
- Mobility & joint care.
CBD products are considered extremely safe for pets when used appropriately
HEMP THC SAFETY & LEGALITY:
Fortunately, supplements with HEMP-derived cannabinoids are below the “less than 0.3% THC” legal requirement.
HEMP MANUFACTURING SAFETY:
During the hemp CBD supplement manufacturing process, the THC levels are reduced to a trace amount that is even lower than the “under 0.3% THC” requirement.
HEMP-manufactured supplements assure you a high-safety CBD product
Hemp vs. Cannabis in Bulldog and French Bulldog
Even though CBD can be extracted from both hemp and cannabis, you should not consider them to be the same.
Hemp and cannabis are each different derivatives of the Cannabis Sativa plant.
Hemp is typically cultivated for its fibers, seeds, and high CBD content, with minimal THC levels (usually less than 0.3%). In contrast, cannabis (or marijuana) is cultivated primarily for its high THC content and psychoactive effects. Understanding these distinctions is important for ensuring CBD products are safe and appropriate for bulldogs.
CANNABIS SATIVA PLANT / STEM vs. FLOWER:
HEMP: is the stem of the Sativa plant
CANNABIS: better known for its recreational use, is the top flowery part of the Sativa Plant
THC LEVELS / STEM vs. FLOWER:
The concentration of the psychoactive chemical part, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), is much higher in the flowery and resinous parts of the plant (CANNABIS) and much lower in the stem part of the plant (HEMP).
HEMP is defined as all parts of the Cannabis sativa L. plant below 0.3% THC by dry weight.
CANNABIS vs. BULLDOG HEMP THC LEVELS WARNING:
In contrast to HEMP low THC (under 0.3%), the Cannabis THC is very high (~10%).

Bulldog and Fr. Bulldog NATURAL CANNABINOID (ECS):
Your bulldog possesses a natural, self-made cannabinoid called the endocannabinoid system (ECS). It can be found in your bulldog’s nerve cells and immune cell receptors.
Cannabinoids: HEMP CBD first binds and then activates and boosts your bulldog ECS network.
Your bulldog ECS network of cellular activators and receptors helps regulate physiological processes, including pain, sleep, memory, mood, and inflammation.

Cannabis THC Toxicity in Bulldogs and French Bulldogs
As a direct consequence of medicinal cannabis legalization and the popularity of its recreational and medicinal usage, we have been seeing a higher caseload of accidental THC toxicity in bulldogs and other dog breeds.
THC toxicity usually involves accidental ingestion of cannabis (referred to as “grass,” marijuana, or pot), including its various forms such as liquid extracts, edibles like laced cookies, and other infused products.
Bulldog Cannabis THC Intoxication Symptoms:
Bulldogs can be particularly susceptible to THC’s toxic effects, which can include symptoms such as:
- DROWSY
- DISORIENTATION
- VOMITING
- TREMORS
- LISTLESS
- ATAXIA
- SEDATION
- DILATED PUPILS
- TACHYCARDIA (fast heart rate)
Symptoms might start an hour from digestion and could last for days
Bulldog Cannabis THC intoxication Tips & Warnings
WARNING:
Bulldog THC poisoning can present like other poisons, such as the deadly anti-freeze digestion.
TIP:
Keep all your cannabis products away from pets and children.
Bulldog Cannabis THC Toxic Diagnosis:
THC poisoning is mostly based on history (reports by owners) and clinical signs.
Cannabis THC Poisoning in Bulldogs Treatment:
There is no antidote for cannabis toxicity, treatment is mostly supportive, and a quick response can dramatically improve recovery duration.
BULLDOG MAJCUHANA THC POISONING POLICE REPORTING:
Don’t worry, your veterinarian is not obligated to report anything.
Please bring your bulldog to your vet if suspect THC poison digestion of any kind is suspected.
THC POISONING TREATMENT-INDUCED VOMITING:
Inducing vomiting in a bulldog who is suspected of ingesting THC is only effective when done in the first few minutes before it is absorbed from the gut.
WARNING: to avoid inhalation pneumonia don’t give it to a heavily sedated (intoxicated) bulldog.
WARNING: due to the anti-nausea properties of cannabis, inducing vomiting might be difficult to achieve
THC TOXICITY ACTIVATED CHARCOAL TREATMENT:
Charcoal coats the stomach and slows toxin absorption.
TIP:
As with induced vomiting, the sooner it’s given, the more effective it will be
WARNING:
Never force the charcoal or let your ER doctor do it, forcing the material in bulldogs often leads to aspiration pneumonia. I would only give it mixed with food or via a gastric or nasogastric tube.
Other THC-poisoning supportive care includes
- FLUID: IV fluid
- TPR MONITORING: body temperature, respiration, and pulse
THC Poisoning in Bulldogs Prognosis:
The THC toxicity prognosis is usually good, but supportive treatment might be required for a few days until the THC effects subside.
DRUG INTERACTION WARNING:
Cannabis will interact with other medications, so if you plan to use any of these products, be sure your veterinarian is aware that you are doing so.
