Michigan Rep’s Plan Clearing Way For CBD, THC Treatments For Pets Heads To Governor
Markkanen said research has shown CBD can help pets cope with ailments
State Rep. Greg Markkanen’s proposal to allow veterinarians to consult with pet owners in Michigan about the use of products containing CBD oil and THC for their animals was recently approved by the Senate, advancing it to the governor for her possible signature.
Markkanen (R-Hancock) said some research has shown such products can help pets cope with ailments such as pain, anxiety and epilepsy.
“We must empower Michigan veterinarians to have conversations with their clients who are interested in using products that contain marijuana and CBD oil to care for their pets,” Markkanen said. “It’s equally important for animal owners to be able to openly discuss the options that are available with people who are familiar with their pets, rather than turning to the internet for answers.”
