This works

I have a very excitable terrier mix, I've used other calming supplements but I found they were not very effective. This particular supplement seems to work really well. We had flooring replaced in our house, lots of noise, lots of disruption and she did really well. I could get her to stop barking, to go lay down in her quiet place. She seemed less anxious overall.

this saved my cat

This saved my cat he was so anxious he would get aggressive. I felt bad for him and got him put on fluoxetine but didn’t see much of a change. I was beginning to loose hope but the vet said to put him on this and it has seriously saved him. He still has his personality but he is not nearly as anxious and can relax.

Dog calming pills

It was a waste of money. If anything it made my dog worse. I will never buy again.

Pass on this

I paid almost $50 for 30 pills. I have 2 dogs with anxiety and thought this would help. Went through the whole bottle super fast, noticed no change in either dog. Too much money and doesn't even have any effect.

this medication works

I have three dogs: one girl and two boys. The girl is 10 lbs; the boys are 14 pounds each. Small dogs. We got to the point where the boys could not even look at each other without attacking one another. I would be sitting on the couch reading a book, and suddenly, the boys would start ferociously attacking each other. It made life at home extremely difficult. My girl dog was scared and hid. she developed anxiety bc of this. We had no idea what to do. As soon as both of them began to take this medication, both of their temperaments changed. They were dog piling on top of each other and falling asleep, faces touching. They were playing with toys with each other. They followed each other everywhere. They were like two completely different dogs. I thought it was going to change their personalities dramatically or turn them into little zombies. That was not the case. It did make them sleepier than usual. For the most part, they were their upbeat selves, and they were very affectionate towards each other. If you were ever in this situation, I would absolutely try this medication.

Worth every penny

A friend of mine from our vet clinic recommended CBD and this product - but had never used it. These two ‘items’ were recommended, because she knows my reluctance to use heavier drugs. Dog: 4 1/2yo springer that has always moaned and groaned when in the car. Wife and I had a 900 mile trip planned. Results: Day1: used over her breakfast food. Traveled GREAT. Day 2: less than 5hr drive-didn’t use. Traveled TERRIBLE! Return trip day 1: used, traveled great Day 2: used, traveled great! Relaxed in the car - usually energy at stops! Is this a perfect run ‘drug trial’ - no. But I will definitely use again based on my experience!

Good calming supplement

This is a calming supplement recommended by our veterinarian for our cat Fluffy who has feline PTSD. Combined with TLC, she's gradually become calmer and easier to handle.
