Entourage’s products are safe for dogs and can help with anxiety, inflammation, and mobility issues—but always use a direct oral application, not mixed in food. 🧪 Lab Testing & Purity Matter. Entourage tests for potency, pesticides, heavy metals, and microbes to ensure clean, safe, and effective products. 🚨 THC Warning: If you are drug tested at work, check with your employer before using Entourage products, as they contain full-spectrum cannabinoids, including trace amounts of THC.
