Hello Corinne! I loved it for my seizure and brain tumor patients but now cannot get it across the boarder. I was shipping it from www.wellpetdispensary.com by having the owner order it online from them.
But, now it is not admitted into the country and the orders are shipped back to Dr Silver.
Maybe when Trudeau legalizes marijuana the ABVMA will relax their protocols on cannibus oil. I heard Canada allows marijuana as of April 20, 2017??
So annoying.

Hi Corinne! I have not heard of them yet. I will check it out. Thank you.
I'm not sure what is happening politically right now re: Trudeau legalization process.
I called ABVMA office and Phil said that we theoretically are not allowed to sell marijuana (which includes CBD)
This is what ABVMA bylaw states:
"" Update June 2014: Veterinarians in Alberta are not permitted to authorize the purchase of marijuana for the treatment of animals.""
It is to protect pet owners from giving the unprocessed herb to their pet, which is toxic.
CBD oil is non-toxic, but since its not really legal to use it according to ABVMA, then I'm using other herbs to treat seizures/brain tumors.
I think soon CBD will be allowed by ABVMA, as soon as Canada legalizes it and especially as States like Colorado publish more research on its benefits.

Hi Julie & Corinne,
Welcome to the cannabis party! I have been using it in a majority of my patients for the past four years & have seen some amazing results.
Hemp & Bone is a fairly reliable source for a safe, quality controlled product. As the country moves closer to legalization it seems that products are becoming more difficult to get. Worse case scenario you can work with a local dispensary or compassion club to get safe products for your pets. If you need any help with dosing please feel free to contact me anytime!

In case you haven't heard, we can get a CBD/Hemp oil from Holistic Veterinary solutions. Also, interestingly, vets in Ontario are now allowed to prescribe Hemp oil. I mentioned this to ABVMA who were unaware of this and was told "they would look into it".
