Dosage / How to Use
May be used for dogs, cats & humans too.
Dog Dosage
Start with 3-4 drops and then increase from there if not seeing much affect after a few days.
For a larger dog such as 40kg you could start with 5-6 drops.
Cat Dosage
For cats 1-5kg start with 1-2 drops.
For larger cats 5kg plus, start on 3 drops and adjust from there after 3-5 days.
Finding The Right Dosage
All people / animals react differently to dosing, there is no one size fits all, so it can take time to find the right amount.
Too much can also be counterproductive, so increasing a bit at a time (up-titrating) to see the effect, then adjust again to find the optimum dose.
Size Options
All our hemp oils come in two sizes:
- 25ml bottle – lasts approx. 2-3 weeks
- 100ml bottle – lasts approx. 2-4 months
Storage
The hemp oils & creams can be stored at room temperature for a year at least, no refrigeration required.
For longer storage you may keep them in the fridge.
6 Months of Doggy Trials
We tested our Pet Range for 6 months in a blind trial with 30 dogs, each was given Sample A, B and C and asked to fill out a feedback form for a min 7 days on each oil.
As dogs don’t have the placebo effect, and their owners did not know what was in each oil, the results have been enlightening… read the Testimonials below.
We post more details & feedback regularly on our Facebook and Instagram pages.
Testimonials for ‘Old Dog’
“My black kelpie Keto who is my baby would like to be a part of your survey. She is 8 years old with anxiety to storms and loud bangs. She had a torn ligament in her hind leg which left her with arthritis.
Week 2 I used sample A (Old Dog) and i was able to stop her arnica supplements and she seemed more relaxed. I kept her on it for extra week.
All in all though in saying that she did seem less anxious on the A. Hope this helps as i do believe in natural products for all.”
– Keto, Kelpie
“Gave them Old Dog last night, and they were very good. Narla just relaxes…
Missy was really good this morning, walking outside much better.”
– Narla / Missy
🐕 The Dog / Pet Hemp Range
We make three pet hemp oils to choose from:
- OLD DOG – for dogs with pain, especially older, arthritic dogs (raw hemp + turmeric)
- CALM DOG – for anxious, fearful or OCD dogs (decarboxylated/heated hemp)
- BALANCED DOG – a mixed blend of the two above (50% / 50% + turmeric)
Further Details
Organic Hemp
Specially formulated unheated hemp keeps heat-sensitive terpenes alive (the hemp is not heated / decarboxylated).
All our hemp is grown organically around Nimbin, Australia, though it is not certified organic (see also our Certified Organic Hemp Oil range).
Australian Hemp Seed Oil
100% unrefined cold pressed hemp seed oil from South Australia.
Wonderful for doggy hair which comes up shiny with this supplement.
Also has been reported to reduce malting by 70% in some breeds (Jack Russell and Foxy).
Hemp seed oil is extracted by cold pressing hemp seed and contains the Omega 6:3 ratio of fish oil and is the perfect plant-based alternative for people wanting a more sustainable oil as it doesn’t come with the heavy metals or ecological impact of fish oil.
Turmeric
Turmeric is a strong natural anti-inflammatory often used to relieve pain caused by inflammation, many people take it in tablet or powder form daily as a health supplement.
We use a certified organic, double curcumin strength turmeric from India.
NOTE: turmeric is very yellow and can stain clothes and towels.

2026/01/25 at 7:35 amI have been getting this for my cat for the last year, he used to limp occasionally from an old injury and that is now non existent, his temperament has mellowed, he used to be a bit anxious and he is slightly calmer.
The zoomie routine has also increased three fold, he is 10 years old you’d never know -

I have been purchasing old dog a few months , it is so effective for my Sheppard aches and pains. Helps her to relax when she becomes restless and get a good sleep. Life is much better for my old dog thankyou for making this for us all so we can help our animals .

Our 10-year-old staffy, Tilla, was recently diagnosed with arthritis in her front right shoulder. After some tough days and vet visits, we were looking for a gentler option than strong painkillers.
We started her on Old Dog Pet Hemp Oil 12 days ago, and the difference has been amazing. Her cheeky personality is coming back, and she’s looking more comfortable and relaxed.
So grateful for this natural remedy—it’s helping us keep her happy, comfy, and hopefully back to enjoying little walks again soon 🐾💛

Great product. My old dog who has since passed had been using Old Dog Hemp Oil for a long time. For a few years she had been on Previcox, a pain killer, which is known to affect kidneys and liver. I changed vets and the new one said to take her off Previcox. I did this and increased the hemp oil. No pain. Wish I had done this from the start as it was kidney disease which claimed her. Great company to deal with with quick delivery.

I have been using Old Dog for years on my 2 large dogs. So far no signs of arthritis. My dogs are 9 & 10 years old this year. Very happy with this product

Been using for my 11yo Kelpie/Border Collie with advanced arthritis for over a year now. Very noticeable difference, and with holistic vet bodywork she has turned back the clock years on mobility. Was asked to use vet’s preferred brand, over double the price but just didn’t work for her like Black Sheep Farm’s Old Dog. Now use for our 14yo Mini Foxie too.

Millie who is nearly 14 has been on the Old Dog pet hemp oil for some time. A little while ago the vet said to take her off her main pain killer drug which is effecting her kidneys. I increased the Old Dog and hoped her pain level would be ok. It has been a few months now without any symptoms of pain and this would be so much better for her kidneys and liver.

I have had my Aussie shepherd on this for 2.5 years now. Vet said she had Arthritis in her back & recommended drugs which I wasn’t keen on. I started using 5 drops a day with Chiro treatments at 8 week intervals and my Aussie looks 7 again. She will be 13 in September. Have recommended this product to so many dog friends

I have been buying the hemp oil for my elderly dog for a few years now for her mobility. She is still walking around and enjoying her walks and life in general. Black Sheep Farm is a great company to deal with. They actually reply to any questions asked unlike a lot of businesses these days, prompt service, good communication and very fast delivery.
Cosimo Dichiera (verified owner) –
I bought the old dog hemp oil a week ago, l have been given it to my 9 year old rotti X for his severe arthritis in his back leg, l give it to him 20 min before we go walking , l found it helps to take the edge of pain and he is happy when walking .Truthfully l was sceptical, but after giving it to him for a week, I will keep him on it and now l give the oil to my Labrador as she has a mild soreness and stiffness in the morning l give her 3 drops and she is happy.

I’ve used this product previously, I’m now a returning customer. I’ve been using this product for our old cat, previously was only needed for winter but with her turning 17 she’s now needing it everyday. Have noticed a difference with her joints.looking forward to the next delivery! Thanks

This oil has worked absolute wonders on our 17 year old Lab. He is riddled with arthritis, has been on pharmaceutical medication for years but visibly clear that he was still in a lot of pain. Since taking this oil, he acts like a puppy each morning bouncing and running around! It has been a blessing for him to be with us a little while longer & in less pain.
