VetriScience Composure Behavioral Health Bite-Sized Dog Chews

There are 2 flavors for this product. There is a bag with a German Shepherd on the cover and one with a smaller dog. The bag with the smaller dog has more teats but also has a different flavor that my dog would not eat. I recommend the bag with the shepherd on the cover. The flavor and the smell is much better, at least for my dog. It does seem to keep him calmer when there are thunder storms. Nothing short of giving him a sedative will completely stop the anxiety, but the composure with the thunder shirt does seem to keep him at a 4 in comparison to crazy 10. I absolutely recommend this product.

This product is intended for daily use so took about a week to see any changes but wow what a difference. My dog started getting into fights with the other dogs and even biting me just out of the blue. I was covered in bruises and scratches. Other meds didn't work and made him a zombie. Once the chews started working it was awesome. He only has an occasional outburst from time to time but nothing crazy. This gave me my dog back. Love love love it.

Purchased this today for my 4 month old Pitbull. Even though he is a puppy, he's very hyperactive and barks all day and night. Even after lots of exercise (thinking that would tire him out), he would come into the house and had to be constantly monitored as he would get into anything and everything. He would go crazy when being let out of his crate and pull on the leash so hard. We are in the process of training him, but I it got to the point where lack of sleep and stress due to his barking and behavior was becoming a big issue for my fiancé and I. Gave him Composure today and noticed a HUGE difference!! He usually cannot sit calmly with us ever and runs around the house like a tornado. I let Purchased this today for my 4 month old Pitbull.

I have a Cocker Spaniel that is anxious. My vet put him on a rx medication. Didn’t work. So I tried Composure. It has made a world of difference. He can accept, “go lie down “, now. Whereas previously, he would just bark and bark....No reason or maybe he wanted more treats. Love Composure! I’ve alrrady ordered 3x. I found out my vet uses Composure for his anxious dog!

First off, let me say, this product does not and is not supposed to help bad behavior. I work with dogs, and I have given this to the ones that are stressed, have anxiety, or over simulated. It made a huge difference. They weren't as scared, stressed, ect.. They all were able to relax and enjoy their time away from home better.

I have a Lab who I competed with in agility. He loved agility but when it came to trial environments he would get nervous. These helped "take the edge off" so to speak so he wouldn't be so nervous so I could reward him with treats (he's VERY food motivated) and get his mind off the environment. They also work well for him if I know bad weather is coming as he tends to be a little nervous during thunderstorms as well.

The fourth of July used to be one of my favorite holidays before I adopted my greyhound. She is like most dogs, terrified of fireworks. My vet recommended calming chews, specifically this brand. The begining of the festivities...panting, pacing, crying, the usual heartbreaking symptoms of anxiety. 4 chews and about 15 minutes later she is laying on her bed calmly while loud pops go off. This is a miracle.

Composure chewies have been a lifesaver during thunderstorms and July 4th fireworks. At the first sign of noise or if bad weather is predicted, we give our pup two Composure chews. We have been amazed at how quickly she calms down and usually falls asleep peacefully. Our local stores charge twice the price of Chewy.com and are often sold out. You can't beat the price or the quick delivery. Chewy.com is the best!

My dog has taken 2 treats at dusk now (for when the anxiety seems the worst in a day) for about a week and then seem to be helping (certainly not a miracle drug that cures, but there is an improvement). I wish they came sized more appropriately for the size of the dog and lasted longer than 4 hours. To take them per the directions and for them to really help with the anxiety, then he would need to take about 4 doses a day and 3 treats per dose. Taking 12 treats a days is certainly not cost effective. I have recommend these to a couple of other pet owners and one of them has his Great Dane on them now and he also sees some positive results.

We have a rescue, black lab,pit mix. He is nervous, has separation anxiety and was constantly chewing or licking something all the time. We started the Composure and after the first dose we noticed a huge difference in his behavior. We are expecting storms this weekend and I'm going to see how he does. This will be the BIG test as he is terrified of thunder. So glad we learned about this!
