I just know I've read that cannabis is toxic to dogs and unless I knew what part(s) of it are toxic, I would hesitate to give my dog something containing it that is still new and unproven over the long haul with many, many dogs as to its long-term safety unless I knew all about its history with many dogs having used it for years, the manufacturer and how the weed and other ingredients were farmed, whether doused with pesticides, genetically altered, etc. - all kinds of things that dealing with a new product bring up. Unless my dog were dying and desperately out of chances, I wouldn't take the chance of giving him a new product or drug with little history or long-term risk/benefits ratio to consider.
Xylitol is toxic to dogs and yet when a couple of years back, I found I had bought a dental spray for his teeth back in 2009 that contained the toxin though I had never used it on him for just the above reasons above. I knew nothing about the long-term history of the product on dogs yet I had bought it on an impulse and I threw it away after reading on YT about two Yorkies that almost died from tasting a sauce that contained a tiny amount of Xylitol. Now I only buy and use products with known long-term history.
