Welcome to your Vetted Mental and Behavioral Health Kit!
Our team at Vetted knows just how much joy a pet can bring to your life, and we want to help you offer them the same joy in return! Health and longevity is important when it comes to our little ones, but so is fulfillment and happiness.
Our pups can suffer from depression and anxiety just like we can, so it’s up to us to make sure they are getting all the mental enrichment they need each day. That’s why we created a health kit that is designed specifically to support your dog’s mental and behavioral health!
Now that you have your Mental and Behavioral Health Kit in hand, let’s break down the details of each item so you can feel as confident as possible with each use!
CBD Oil
What is it?
CBD has been popular in the human health and wellness realm, and it’s time for our pups to benefit from this impressive compound as well. Afterall, our dogs have an endocannabinoid system just like we do, which means they can soak in all the mental and physical perks CBD provides.
The main purpose of the endocannabinoid system is to promote balance within the body. This means tackling mental instability, pain, and even immune health. The components in CBD work directly with this impressive messenger system, helping to regulate the body systems and promote overall wellness.
CBD oil for dogs can reduce stress and anxiety, reduce pain, support digestive health, improve skin and coat health, and even reduce inflammation throughout the body. CBD oil is an incredible way to help your pup feel their best!
How to use it?
Not only is CBD oil amazing for the incredible health benefits it offers, but it is also super easy to give our pups! You can simply squirt your dog’s dose of CBD oil on top of their meal once a day, and your pup will eat their food as usual! The standard dose of CBD oil is 0.2mg of CBD per pound, but your CBD oil will have instructions on the label for your little one’s weight range.
Lick Mat
What is it?
Did you know that the act of repetitive licking is soothing for a dog? Licking helps to release cortisol within the dog’s body, and this is a hormone that is responsible for promoting relaxation. If you pair the soothing act of licking with a tasty treat your pup loves, the product is the lick mat!
A lick mat was designed specifically with a dog’s mental health in mind. A lick mat can promote relaxation, reduce anxiety, offer engaging enrichment, and even improve their mental sharpness! Not only is the lick mat an incredible addition to your dog’s mental health routine, it has also been found to promote dental wellness due to increased saliva production while your pup licks.
How to use it?
The best part about the lick mat is how easy it is to customize your little one’s snack time! We suggest smearing your dog’s favorite wet food treat across the mat, placing the lick mat in the freezer for a couple hours to harden it, and then letting your pup dive in! You can even add some pieces of dog-safe fruit to the mixture to offer your pup a boost of nutrition!
You can offer your pup their lick mat at any time, but it is especially useful during potentially stressful events. This could be when you leave the house, during a loud thunderstorm, or even when fireworks are booming above your home. The licking mat serves as a wonderful distraction for nervous pups.
We are so happy that you have taken the steps to promote your little one’s mental and behavioral health, and we know your pet will thank you in an abundance of kisses and cuddles.
