Not Magic but Pretty Darn Close
By AussieMom on Dec 12, 2019
This has been life changing for my two year old Australian Shepherd with socialization issues, anxiety, and separation anxiety (all due to a rehoming situation). I especially love this product because my girl is still herself and I don't have to put her on a prescription. This is not a miracle pill that will fix all of your dogs problems, you as a pet owner ALSO need to put in some work with your dog. I combine this with CBD twice daily, group training classes twice a week, a balanced raw diet, love, proper socialization, and proper mental and physical simulation. If you are wondering how to get your dog to eat that huge pill, shove it in the back of their mouths (as far as you can go) and This has been life changing for my two year old Australian Shepherd with socialization issues, anxiety, and separation anxiety (all due to a rehoming situation).

Recommended by a Rescue group
By Penlo000 on Oct 19, 2018
My little girl came to me with high anxiety and difficult to work with. Based on recommendation I tried this product and am very pleased with its effect on her. Not groggy, just relaxed and calm which is helping her become a part of my dog family. Would recommend at least trying this product and being consistent. I ordered pills which I am crushing them and putting on her food. She has no problem with the taste. Next time I will order powder. I am also going to try Herbsmith July Third which is recommended by the company for short term anxiety stress. Calm Shen may not have an immediate effect on some dogs indications are more long term. Company says they can be used together.

So far so good
By RxyL on Apr 19, 2018
We started our dog on the smaller bottle and he did really well on it. So we opted to purchase the larger bottle this time around. It seems like it helps him the same way as the smaller bottle, although the product itself seems slightly different. It's possible because its all natural stuff so its not going to be the same every time but so far so good. We are going to continue to use these until he can be on his own and be calm.

Don't seem to have any affect
By golfchik on Apr 21, 2018
We have a dog who is a bit hyper and I thought these might help keep him calm in new situations. He's been taking it for about 2 weeks and it doesn't seem to be having any affect at all.

This is a wonderful product. It helps take the edge off easily aroused dogs and help calm nervous dogs so that both can manage more comfortably in stress provoking situations.

Finally, I can sleep!
By doglovr on Feb 27, 2017
I have nothing but praise for this product! My 13 yr old chowsky was panting (overheating), pacing all night long, and suffering from extreme anxiety. She would try to chew through the doors and walls, even while I was home! These herbs have helped her tremendously! She's back to her old self!

Did not work
By Lyssa on Feb 16, 2017 Top 500 Contributor
It is difficult to get the dog to take these without hiding them in something especially stinky. They smell like a spice cabinet unfortunately, so I can't blame her. As if not taking them isn't bad enough, they do not help much. Oh how I wish they did.
