CBD products provide organic relief for pets

What is it?
CBD products from Pet Releaf provide organic treatments for pets suffering from a variety of symptoms, including arthritis, pain, cancer symptoms, anxiety, inflammation, GI tract issues, epilepsy and skin issues. The products come in many varieties, depending on the size of the animal and the symptoms, from treat-size bites and capsules to topical creams and oils. CBD is often referred to as the clear-headed, functional strain of hemp, and is distinct from the THC strain, which is the intoxicant and can have harsh side effects.

Why is it popular?
Pawpular Companions Owner Mara Crowell said the CBD products fit in well with her shop’s main focus on nutrition and pet health. As an alternative and natural treatment, she said many customers have reported favorable results. Like most good products, word of mouth has become its best marketing tool.

Mara shared the story of a Yorkshire Terrier that suffered from seizures, whose owner uses the oil when a seizure comes on. She said the results are fast acting and symptoms are greatly lessened.

The owner of a larger breed dog that suffers from arthritis and related hip and joint pain reported noticeable relief with no side effects, while another customer said the treatment calms aggression in her pet.

Wow factor
Mara and Carl Crowell are the familiar faces behind Pawpular Companions, but almost as familiar is their dog, Canvas. Mara said Canvas suffers from anxiety, which often shows itself when separated from the family or traveling by car. When necessary, the Crowells have introduced CBD products with Canvas, who now sits in a car seat relaxed instead of pacing around the vehicle in alarm.

And it’s not just Canvas. Mara said customers have talked about the benefits of CBD during situations that make dogs anxious, whether that’s when a crowd is over for a Super Bowl party or when the fireworks keep going late into the night on the Fourth of July.

The MeadowWood Burger
The Grill at MeadowWood Golf Course
24501 E. Valleyway Ave.

Meaty. Mammoth. Did we mention meaty? This bacon cheeseburger also includes slices of ham as well as all the usual toppings. Served with French fries.

Why you’ll love it

You might expect MeadowWood Golf Course Pro Bob Scott to receive compliments about the aquatic driving range, the lengthy par-5 16th, or the view from the tee at 18. He does, but what you might not guess is how often he hears about the burgers.

“I’ve got to admit, some of our customers say we have the best burgers in town,” Scott said.

The course’s namesake burger doesn’t disappoint, and like MeadowWood itself, it utilizes every club in the bag. Perhaps the best-kept dining secret in Liberty Lake resides here in the golf course clubhouse. With lots of seating both inside and on the spacious patio, MeadowWood serves a lineup of great American burgers, sandwiches and salads all day long during the golf season — along with incredible views. The secret is getting out: It’s not just for golfers.

From the kids menu to the daily specials to the popular huckleberry ice cream, the Grill at MeadowWood is driving a reputation as a family-friendly destination boasting top-flight customer service.
