How to Read a Pet CBD COA for Dogs, Cats & Pets
Learn how parents of dogs, cats, and pets can read a pet CBD Certificate of Analysis, understand its scope, and confirm why the tested batch matters.
A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is a laboratory report tied to a specific sample and batch. It records the methods used, the compounds tested, and the laboratory's measured results. At Companion Pet Company, we publish current documentation so pet parents and veterinary professionals can review it directly.
Start With the Scope
The report currently posted on this site covers the CBD isolate ingredient used in our formulations. It is an ingredient COA, not a finished-soft-chew report. That distinction matters: always confirm what material was tested, the batch number, and the report date before interpreting any result.
What the Current Report Covers
Cannabinoid Profile
The cannabinoid panel identifies and quantifies compounds in the CBD isolate sample. For ingredient batch 0100263, the laboratory reported 99.1% CBD, 99.5% total cannabinoids, and total delta-9 THC as not detected.
Heavy Metals
The report includes results for arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and lead. Each was reported as not detected in the submitted ingredient sample.
Pesticides
The report includes a multi-analyte pesticide panel. Read each line individually: most entries were reported as not detected, while the laboratory marked Acequinocyl as not reported.
Residual Solvents
The residual-solvent panel documents the laboratory's results for solvents included in its method. Most were reported as not detected, and n-Hexane was reported below the laboratory's limit of quantitation.
Why Third-Party Testing Matters
Independent laboratory documentation adds a separate, reviewable record to a manufacturer's quality process. Useful COAs identify the laboratory, sample, batch, dates, methods, reporting limits, and results.
