Accidentally gave dog human CBD oil with avocado. Is it safe?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | neutered | 11 years and 7 months old | 23 lbs

I accidentally bought CBD oil for humans instead of dogs off a CBD website. The CBD oil bought contains Avocado Oil. I have already given my dogs several doses since I have been reading that oil should be fine. I just want to double check with a vet though. Thoughts?

I would not have any concerns about avocado oil in an otherwise healthy dog. You should make sure you’re giving an appropriate dose since the human version might be more concentrated - you should be able to compare the concentration to the veterinary product you intended to purchase.
