Our Origin
Shorty the Wonder Dog!
Part Yorkie and part Chihuahua. We all loved Shorty from the first moment we saw him. Shorty started to settle in as one of our family members. He really took to my son Quinten and really never left his side. Shorty would hear the school bus from all the way down the street and wait at the window until he saw Quinten walking through the door.
I started working in the Cannabis and Hemp industry in 2015. I realized how good Hemp was for several reasons mainly CBD. I started to make tinctures and realized that animals had an endocannabinoid system just like humans.
I noticed when storms came or sirens went by Shorty would get very nervous. I started trying some of my CBD products with Shorty and they really seemed to work.
I had the pleasure of meeting Kyle in 2017 as we were both in the CBD industry and were donating CBD products to patients. Being that it was before legalization in Canada we were operating in a gray area. When Federal legalization became approved in 2018 CBD was still regulated the same as THC in Canada. Kyle and I had dreamed of putting animal products to market but we knew we had a long road ahead of us.
In 2018 I had the pleasure of meeting George. The 3 of us became partners and started to look at the US market to launch Animalis. I wanted to create a product line that I knew would help treat animals with CBD/CBG. This product line was created to help maintain the overall health of animals. The nano water is fast acting, created to help animals in distress.
Shorty passed away a couple of months ago and I felt my heart break. The only comfort I had was knowing that Shorty had a long 22 years as a family member and I know his health was maintained because of Hemp products.
