Honest Paws Review

Written by Cathy Rozyczko — Edited by Jason Brett on February 9, 2021

Honest Paws is true to their name — their CBD products for pets are indeed 100% all-natural! Overall, we’re impressed with their quality CBD oil for dogs, cats, horses, and more. The Honest Paws CBD tinctures are incredibly affordable for pets’ daily health regimens, and we love their bites with organic ingredients and zero-sugar-added CBD peanut butter. Did we mention? The CBD oil in all their formulas is USDA-certified organic! Hooray!

Honest Paws was started by a group of pet lovers, and their mission statements bring the feels, one of which goes, “We want to do more than just provide a solution for your pet’s ailments, we want to help you embrace the limited time you have together.” Their goal is to give your furry friends a happier, healthier existence, all while saving you costly trips to the vet. Sounds like a solid plan for any pet lover.

Honest Paws is big on prevention, encouraging pet owners to adopt their affordable CBD into their animals’ daily health regimens to keep them on a healthy track as they age. The brand has two blogs — one on pet care and one on medication — that are awesome sources of information on pet health. We especially like the medication blog that details dosing, risks, etc. for different OTC medicines commonly given to pets.

The Honest Paws CBD catalog features full-spectrum cannabidiol, totally all-natural ingredients, and tasty tasty treats:

• CBD-infused coconut oil for dogs
• CBD-infused peanut butter (Hooray for no added sugar!)
• CBD oil tinctures for dogs by weight
• CBD oil tinctures for cats
• CBD oil tinctures for horses
• CBD paste for horses
• CBD bites – These come in three varieties — peanut butter for calming, turmeric for relief, and coconut for coat health — and the ingredients are fantastic! Mostly organic goodies and all human-grade stuff. With five milligrams of CBD each, these are some top-of-the-line treats any pet owner can feel good about.
• CBD soft chews – The CBD chews are a bit more expensive but feature powerful ingredients like glucosamine in the joint formula and tryptophan in the calm formula.

Honest Paws posts third-party cannabinoid profiles for each SKU, an excellent and uncommon practice for a pet CBD vendor. You can also view third-party contaminants results for heavy metals and microbiological impurities.

As far as other tests we require for the Safety Badge (namely residual solvents and pesticides), we have an unusual situation with Honest Paws. While they don’t post these results online, we were able to view documentation that their CBD oil is indeed USDA-certified organic! Because of these documents, we — as well as the USDA — are totally confident Honest Paws cannabidiol is free from solvents and pesticides.

And since Honest Paws’ hemp is organically grown in sunny Colorado, the Quality Badge gives them a well-deserved four badges.

To close, it’s rare for vendors to obtain the USDA organic seal. If they’re vertically integrated, they have to undergo extreme scrutiny and expensive testing. If they aren’t (like Honest Paws), they have to spend considerably more on sourcing organic cannabidiol. We’re happy for the Honest Paws customers that get to enjoy this premium goodness at an affordable price.

Bottom Line – Honest Paws has awesome full-spectrum CBD products packed with USDA-organic cannabidiol for pets that are as tasty as they are effective.
