CBD, PURCHASING & PRODUCT QUICK FAQS
Our Most Frequently Asked Questions
There is a lot of misinformation on the web about CBD, and its legality is not free from this misinformation either. Hemp and marijuana were prohibited in the US in 1939, but the passage of the Hemp Farming Act of 2018 allowed farming of industrial hemp, with specific limitations on THC content of less than 0.3%, to resume federally. Through this act, CBD derived from hemp has also been legalized federally. However, individual state governments still consider CBD illegal, regardless of whether it was derived from marijuana or industrial hemp. At the time of this writing, for residents of all states other than Idaho, Nebraska, and South Dakota, CBD is legal. For these three exceptional states, the legislature prohibits CBD, and while federally allowed, pet owners in Idaho, Nebraska, and South Dakota may be breaking local laws if possessing CBD and hemp products for their pets. Of course, even where it is legal, very few states have issued any guidance on use of CBD in pets, and unfortunately, very few state veterinary medical associations have taken stands in favor of hemp or CBD for pets.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of hundreds of molecules produced by plants in the Cannabis genus such as hemp. These molecules interact with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) present in humans and pets (and other animals), which is tied to nearly every other body system like the nervous system, immune system, circulatory system, digestive system, etc. The ECS is responsible for many aspects of normal, healthy functioning of these different body systems. CBD improves the function of the naturally produced endocannabinoids already circulating in our pets’ bodies, and also mimics other important naturally produced signaling molecules like serotonin. There have been clinical trials demonstrating some of benefits of CBD at a few veterinary colleges, including Cornell and University of Florida, where our founding veterinarians, Dr. Katie Green and Dr. Kyra Marsigliano, were trained.
Yes, two of our owners and founders are veterinarians. They that have helped carry out clinical trials and have even used CBD Vet Products on their own pets with great results! If your veterinarian has questions or concerns, our veterinary team is happy to discuss CBD and related topics with them. Please contact us.
Because of CBD’s ability to directly trigger receptors in many body systems, and its additional ability to enhance the effects and availability of other naturally occurring molecules in the body, CBD can have a lot of benefits. Pet owners who use our CBD Vet Products use it for all the things that the endocannabinoid system (ECS) supports: behavioral support and normal neurologic function, modulation of the inflammatory system, even occasional discomfort and stress. The most surprising benefits come when pet owners didn’t know their pet’s ECS had deficits, and then see behavioral changes and improvements to their pet’s quality of life they hadn’t noticed were suboptimal.
Cats are magical little creatures that are generally very hard to impress, and we understand that many of them aren’t too keen on willingly taking such a unique product even if we and dogs are super excited about SimpliSolve. We also know it takes an extra-magical cat to allow her owner to lift her lip and stick a little sheet on there.
Regardless of how your cat takes it, all cats have endocannabinoid systems that may benefit from CBD Vet Products, so SimpliSolve is made for consumption by both dogs and cats. Stay tuned as our team is working on additional innovative products to help make CBD administration even easier for our feline friends.
SimpliSolve sheets have CBD and other important hemp extract components evenly distributed throughout each sheet. The sheets are just slightly bigger than 1 square inch. They can be easily folded and ripped into an appropriate size for your pet, based on their weight, for easy administration.
For pets up to 20 lbs, we recommend giving 1/4 of a sheet twice daily. For 20-50 lb pets, one-half sheet is recommended. And pets over 50 lbs tend to benefit from a full sheet twice daily.
Of course, this guideline is based on what SimpliSolve users have found helpful, but some pets may require more or less than generally recommended based on the functioning of their individual endocannabinoid system.
CBD Vet Products are made with a broad spectrum hemp distillate and contain only trace amounts of THC, which is the molecule in Cannabis plants that causes intoxication in humans and dogs. High levels of THC can cause bad side effects that often land pets in emergency rooms, which is why pet owners should avoid giving their pet any cannabis product that is not specifically formulated for pets, and should be careful to keep human products out of reach. But the very low levels of THC in CBD Vet Products (<0.3%) will have no intoxicating effect on pets, and can provide some benefits that THC-free hemp products lack. Some pet owners report mild lethargy, but with CBD Vet Products, this is more an effect of calmness and comfort.
SimpliSolve is manufactured in Florida with human-grade ingredients and equipment in a facility that is FDA compliant and follows cGMP regulations. Our CBD-rich broad spectrum hemp is extracted in Colorado at a laboratory with state-of-the-art proprietary processing techniques developed by organic chemists and cannabis plant scientists.
No. CBD Vet products are made with natural and organic ingredients. The active ingredient CBD works naturally within the endocannabinoid system which is a completely different biochemical pathway then your regular pet medications. It is ok to use CBD Vet Products' SimpliSolve with your pet along side with any other pet medications.
Yes we regularly test all of our products. We test to make sure the proper dosage of cannabinoids are present in each product. We also test to ensure that our products do not contain any other unwanted chemicals or metals.
Every batch of Simpli-Solve CBD sheets is tested three separate times by three independent laboratories throughout production. Unlike other companies, we provide these results before you buy, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. We even provide a QR code on our packaging so you can easily find the results from the specific product in your hand. As always, we will be happy to answer any questions you may have about a COA that we or even another company has provided you.
See our Certificate of Analysis page for more info.
It is true there are hundreds of pet companies selling thousands of products supposedly formulated for your pet. But we can promise you, there is nothing like what CBD Vet Products has to offer.
Our unique flagship product, SimpliSolve dissolving CBD sheets, provides the benefits of CBD with an effectiveness and ease of administration that will have you ditching CBD oil and treats as quickly as these sheets dissolve in your pet’s mouth. With patented Excelisorb technology, the sheets are absorbed directly from the lining of your pet’s mouth and into their bloodstream. Through this transmucosal route, there is faster and greater absorption of the beneficial molecules. In contrast, when CBD is given orally such as in a treat or oil, a large portion of the CBD is metabolized and discarded by the body before it has a chance to be absorbed and utilized. And because absorption is significantly slower with those other products, it can take hours before pets see benefits, compared to SimpliSolve. A final benefit of our SimpliSolve’s unique delivery system is that pet’s can’t spit it out and they don’t have to willingly take it -- although most pets come running when they hear the cassette open and smell the sheets’ delicious chicken flavor. For pets feeling poorly and not wanting to eat, owners need only lift their lip and stick the sheet on a pink surface (mucous membrane) like the gums or inner cheek. The sheet dissolves in seconds, before even the pickiest pet can refuse. If only giving everything to your pet was this simple!
Aside from the unique product itself, our founders bring their extensive knowledge of the hemp plant, veterinary medicine, and the endocannabinoid system. No other company brings this combination and level of expertise to the industry, which explains why there is no product quite like what CBD Vet Products has to offer.
Of course, there is no greater explanation than experience. Place your order and let us show you the difference with SimpliSolve by CBD Vet Products.

Along with our expertise in veterinary medicine, we have a scientific approach to cannabinoid use and dosing. We are leading the veterinary hemp industry in providing independent laboratory Certificates of Analysis to assure you're buying the safest, most consistent product for your pet.
Different companies and products (and even batches of the same product from the same company) can vary significantly in their content of these cannabinoids and terpenes. Even for an isolate product that supposedly only contains CBD, and especially for products that are broad spectrum (containing CBD plus other cannabinoids and terpenes), it is crucial for companies to provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) for every batch of every product they sell. The COA will break down all the molecules contained in the product, including cannabinoids and terpenes, as well as any potential contaminants, including pesticides, toxic heavy metals, and bacterial or fungal contaminants. For more information about how to read a COA, read our guide.
Companies that don’t provide these full analyses for every batch may be hiding something. Their product may have a significantly lower concentration of CBD than what they claim on the bag or bottle. It may be contaminated with something that could make your pet sick. In some cases, it may not contain any beneficial cannabinoids at all, and you could be pouring money down the drain (and supporting some really shady folks). At the very least, since this testing can be expensive, companies that do not provide a COA for every batch simply do not value your pet’s health they way we do at CBD Vet Products.
At CBD Vet Products, we know how important it is for pet parents to understand what they are giving their pets. This is why every batch of Simpli-Solve CBD sheets is tested three separate times by three independent laboratories throughout production. Unlike other companies, we provide these results before you buy, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. We even provide a QR code on our packaging so you can easily find the results from the specific product in your hand. As always, we will be happy to answer any questions you may have about a COA that we or even another company has provided you.
