At Asher House Wellness, our mission has always been bigger than supplements. It’s about advocacy, education, and protecting access to natural wellness solutions for the animals who need them most.
That’s why we recently spoke out in a guest opinion piece published by Cannabis Business Times, addressing a growing concern that could have devastating consequences for pets nationwide: the proposed federal hemp ban.
This ban isn’t theoretical. If enacted, it could remove safe, hemp-derived CBD options from the market—leaving millions of animals without a proven, trusted path to calm, comfort, and quality of life.

Why the Hemp Ban Is a Direct Threat to Animal Wellness
Hemp-derived CBD has become a cornerstone of holistic pet care. For rescued animals, seniors, and pets suffering from anxiety, joint discomfort, inflammation, or trauma, CBD is often one of the few gentle, non-sedating options available.
A broad hemp ban would:
Eliminate access to trusted, lab-tested products
Push pet parents toward harsher pharmaceutical alternatives
Disproportionately impact rescued, aging, and special-needs animals
Undermine years of progress in responsible hemp regulation
This isn’t about removing unsafe products — it’s about over-correction that harms the most vulnerable.

How Asher House Wellness Is Leading the Fight
Asher House Wellness is not standing on the sidelines.
We are actively leading the fight against the hemp ban alongside respected, mission-driven brands like Charlotte’s Web, uniting voices across the hemp, wellness, and animal advocacy communities to protect responsible access to hemp-derived CBD.
Together, we are advocating for:
Science-backed regulation, not prohibition
Clear standards that protect consumers and animals
Continued access to hemp-derived wellness solutions for pets
This leadership extends beyond words. We’ve built a centralized hub to mobilize our community and turn concern into action.
Why CBD Access Matters for Pets and Pet Parents

For millions of families, CBD isn’t a trend. It’s part of a daily wellness routine that helps pets:
Stay calm during stress and anxiety
Move more comfortably as they age
Recover from trauma or physical strain
Live happier, more balanced lives
Removing access to hemp-derived CBD doesn’t remove the need — it only removes a safe solution.
