I had 3 grooming clients on Prozac..not funny, so do not laugh!
One was a compulsive licker..the walls, carpets, furntiure. He would even lick the print off the newspaper..non-stop. After 2 weeks on Prozac he improved 100%..and continued to improve until he stopped the licking.
The other two were aggressive, constant barking and pacing...both improved..BUT I do not know if they have to be on it for a lifetime..I do know two of them were about to be given away if they did not improve..the licker would have continued to just drive her owner nuts.
