Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys
We're your sassy hosts, Dr. Amy L. Pike and Dr. Amy Learn, A.K.A...THE AMYS! As Board Certified Veterinary Behaviorists, we understand the challenges of pet guardianship. Every day we diagnose and treat behavior problems. And, every day we help pets and their people navigate the sea of confusing, misleading, and downright false information swirling around on the internet and social media.
We provide clinical insight into underlying causes of behavior problems, make cynical sense of nonsense, disprove myths, and promote positive, trusting human/animal relationships.
We're dedicated to modern, science-based intervention without the use of pain, fear, force, or intimidation. It is our mission to drive comprehensive pet wellness to the forefront of veterinary medicine and mainstream pet culture. JOIN US and the HIVE MIND, to set the record straight on the hottest and most controversial topics we encounter as clinicians, educators, and guardians.
Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys
The 420 - Clearing the CBD Smokescreen
Do you know what costs A LOT more than a bottle of CBD oil? A trip to the ER. Join the Amys and their mentor, Dr. Lisa Radosta, as they clear the smokescreen and hash out the science regarding the use of cannabis products in veterinary medicine.
The market is flooded with so-called quick-fix solutions to common pet behavior problems. And, when pet parents are desperately searching for answers, it can be challenging to navigate the barrage of messaging and pseudoscience available at their fingertips. Given the inconsistencies in policy and legislation, and society’s differing ideologies and moral considerations regarding the use of cannabis, the lines are further blurred and the truth even more allusive. Alas, our best option is to do what we do best - follow the science!
What’s actually contained in the CBD products that are marketed to pet parents? Is there any scientific evidence that CBD products treat our pet’s behavioral concerns when administered according to labeled instructions? Are Certificates of Analysis verifying a product’s quality, safety, and regulatory compliance required for every CBD product available on the market?
It’s time to clear the air and set the record straight. Grab a cocktail and get up to speed on the latest buzzzzzz during episode 12 of the Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys veterinary behavior podcast.
