Bailey’s CBD Review

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

When it comes to CBD for pets, Bailey’s just does it better. Perhaps it’s because the founder spent years growing and extracting medicinal cannabis in California. Or maybe it’s their passionate team of veterinarians. Or maybe it’s their truly full-spectrum cannabidiol that’s some of the most robust we’ve seen — according to third-party tests — in the CBD pet arena. No matter how you slice it, Bailey’s is one of the best.

Jay O’Keefe spent years working at a hemp extraction lab in California that made CBD and other cannabis oils. The outfit even cultivated their own plants and specialized in RSO (Rick Simpson oil) for terminally ill patients. Drawing on his knowledge and desire to create an ethical business, O’Keefe started his own delivery service for patients in California. He then started to make CBD pet products and offer them to customers.

The response was overwhelming.

O’Keefe knew he had a winner, but he wanted to be sure to fine-tune his cannabidiol formulations. Though very similar, the endocannabinoid system of your dog or cat doesn’t function in the exact same way yours does.

So, he enlisted the help of Dr. Robert J. Silver and other vets to get it just right. In 2017, Bailey’s was born with O’Keefe’s pug as the logo and namesake.

Let’s discuss what we love about this brand:

• Single sourcing – Bailey’s gets their CBD hemp from just one family farm in Boulder that happens to have USDA organic certification. You can view the certificate online! Talk about transparency.
• Transparency – Not only that, Bailey’s exhibits some of the most stringent testing criteria in the animal CBD world. They easily earn our Safety Badge for their commitment to testing for potency and terpenes, as well as a slew of contaminants. Bravo on this front!

Truly full-spectrum options – CBD pet brands are notorious for using CBD isolate or broad-spectrum CBD. And the CBD market at-large is known to advertise full spectrum promises with tests that sometimes tell a different story. Bailey’s does neither. Their full-spectrum cannabidiol shows beneficial terpenes and multiple cannabinoids. Even the rarely seen CBN makes an appearance!

Bailey’s offers six potent and pure CBD products for any animal that might be your companion. These were all formulated by Dr. Silver, who has spent years on clinical cannabis research for animals. Since he has observed that full-spectrum cannabidiol has the most therapeutic benefit for furry friends, it is exclusively used in the catalog. But never fear, THC levels fall well below the legal limit.

There’s the CBD oil tinctures for dogs made with organic MCT oil (not every day you see pet CBD vendors sourcing organic ingredients). Next up are the CBD tinctures for cats and horses and all-natural CBD pet balm with aloe. Bailey’s award-winning omega hemp soft chews for dogs are bacon-flavored and free of grain and soy. Finally, the brand offers CBD hemp pellets designed for horses, goats, pigs, sheep, and ‘pocket pets.’

Finally, Bailey’s gives back in a big way — they donate a bottle of their CBD oil to an animal rescue organization for every four items sold on their site. Their slogan is that a healthy pet is a happy pet, and we couldn’t agree more. We love what they’re up to and can’t wait to see what’s next for Bailey and the team.

Bottom Line – Bailey’s showcases the best of the best when it comes to CBD pet vendors. Their full spectrum options for all types of pets earn an A+ from us.
