Calming City Dogs

My dog doesn't do well in open dog runs and often gets spooked by loud noises, sirens, etc. I give him at least one of these every day under normal circumstances - more, if he's doing something really stressful for him such as riding in cars, going to the vet or groomer, etc. It's not 100%, but it does seem to reduce his anxiety.

My dog, Benji, loves these soft chews. He's always excited to eat them. Shortly after taking them, he seems to be slightly calmer. I usually give one at night, and it appears to have helped him sleep. He sleeps longer and is less hyperactive in the morning.

My 19lb shih tzu loves the taste of these chews but it took a few hours to finally calm her down but don't know if it was the chew or she finally got tired of barking. I bought them because she bars excessively at night and wakes everyone up. The good thing is that they are natural, no prescription med and she loves the taste.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I adopted a 1yr old Havanese. She is 7lbs and got car sick every time after only 5 minutes in the car. She would yawn, salivate and then throw up. I bought the snoozer center console carseat (I put a bath towel in it in case she got sick) and the calming chews. I gave Chloe 2 chews about 15 minutes before we took off for a 2 1/2 hr drive. She was so calm. She didn't drool at all. She just slept. I couldn't be happier!

My rescue dog is a Beagle mix that has sever problems with separation anxiety. I couldn't even sleep in a different room where she couldn't see me. I give her one of these about half an hour before betime and I can now get about 6 hours sleep. Every night it is getting better. I am sure we wouldn't be having this kind of success if it weren't for this calming aid.

Our Shepherd Lab Mix has been a terror every time we left him alone in the house. We started giving him these treats before we leave and it seems to be doing the trick, though it could be a coincidence and he is just growing out of this phase...

I have 2 small dogs in addition to my dane. The two little guys are 8 and 12 months old so they can be a little difficult to keep still at times like grooming and brushing. I tried these on a whim -- first time, they were pretty calm. I thought maybe it was coincidence. A week later same thing...I've used the chews 5 or 6 times now and I ahve to say, for whatever reason, I think they help. I'm skeptical yet, but you knwo what, for the money, it's worth a try to see yourself.

I started using these back in the summer for my then puppy, now she's just over a year old. I normally don't mind her being really active but, since i work night shift i like when she will lay down and relax and let me sleep. It started in spring when the weather got nice and there was a lot to look at outside and she'd wake me up and wanna go out just to look around instead of go potty. I thought i'd try these and they seem to work. She gets me up too much i give her one and she settles down.

I have a 10 year old Male Min Pin who has recen;y gotten much more anxious. 2 or 3 of these seem to take the edge off pretty quickly. My vet wanted to put him on Prozac but this seems to be helping.

It simply had no effect what so ever on my cocker spaniel. He is always so anxious when it's grooming time (especially when I have to cut his nails) and I was really hoping for something to relax him a little bit.

My dogs HATE thunderstorms. They've gotten to the point where if even a car backfires, they are both trying to jump in my lap or hide behind the toilet in the bathroom. This is no small thing with 2 large dogs. Anyway, the first time I used these, I gave them a full dose and Imy dogs acted like they were drunk. One kept licking the floor and the other kept bumping into things. So a few nights later, I gave them each a half dose of this when I heard the first distant rumblings of thunder right before bedtime. They slept like babies through the entire storm. I'm very impressed.

I would not recommend this product at all. I have a 12-yr old beagle mix with separation anxiety. Not only did this not work for that, they made him much more aggressive when I am around. I am horribly unhappy with this product. If I could get my money back I would.

My little doxie has separation anxiety and I had tried alot of different things to help her out. I bought these and the first time not much happened. She still chewed up the place. The second time I gave her two instead of one and I came home and nothing was chewed up. I am never without these things now. I can leave the house knowing that she wont tear the place up.

These "treats" work great. a 1/2 a treat is just enough to take the edge off. No side affects.

there's been a lot of crazy storms lately and my 60lb lab mix isn't fond of the loud thunder. I give him 2 of these all natural treats and in 30mins he's totally fine, wanting to play.

Our healthly 14-year old chow mix has random periods of restlessness and anxiety, and is also afraid of storms. Calming really does a great job, and I can see the difference within 10 - 15 minutes, which is great. I don't give them daily, just as needed.
We bought it when she started waking up in the night and just pacing and panting - these anxiety attacks in the middle of the night were a new wrinkle for us, and we needed our sleep! One or two chew tabs before bed for a week or so broke the habit completely. The chew tabs worked so great that we now give her one when we place her in her crate to keep her from fretting, and one or two if we know a storm is coming.
The only downside is the small package. But the product works great, and our fussy eater gobbles them right down (they smell good enough for me to want to try one!).

Storm Anxiety

PostedMarch 29, 2010

I have a ten year old Golden mix. As he has aged, he has progressively experienced more anxiety during thunder storms, common in our area. Fireworks also cause problems. I found these chews last year and they work great for him. In fact sometimes when he experiences anxiety he leads me to where the chews are stored!! With only 2 chews he starts to chill out in 10-15 minutes. I now anticipate the storms, so he can relax and so can we!
But I agree, it would be nice to have packages with larger quantities.
