We didn't discuss it initially, but did on followup

My parents use CBD with their dog (same litter as mine) for his hip pain and anxiety and they said it helped quite a bit, especially on car rides. Since studies have shown CBD to help with seizures we gave it a shot.

We texted the vet to let him know we were going to try it and he said it was a good idea.

When we brought her back in for a followup visit, the vet was pretty astonished by how well she was doing. He did say that he has been reading up on CBD and it shows promising impacts in a few areas, anxiety and seizures among them.
