It's probably too late for some, but NPR ran a story about using cannabidiol (CBD) extract to calm dogs during fireworks and firecracker booms and bangs:
Betsy initially got a prescription for medical marijuana to help with her own joint pain. While at the medical marijuana dispensary, she also picked up a vial of CBD oil designed for pets, on the advice of the manager.
Still, cannabis therapies for pets fall into a legal gray zone.
Shu says marijuana has long had a bad reputation in the veterinary community, which has seen many ER cases of dogs suffering toxic effects from gobbling down their owners' marijuana stash or edibles.
