He found that combining five flower essences, a formula was created that worked to sooth the mind and relax the senses. This is the Rescue Remedy which is marketed off-brand as Five Flower Formula. This became the most famous of his remedies. Most natural foods and supplement stores carry it.

The human formula is carried in an alcohol base, which some dogs are sensitive to - mine aren't, but if you are concerned they make a pet formula that is alcohol-free.

I wrote an article about it with links to buy it online

Thank you for letting me know what it is. I called GNC (General Nutrition Centre) today and they carry it, but I didn't know to ask for a pet formula, so hopefully they carry that as well. I would have bought it online, but we're leaving on Sunday, so we won't get it by then.
Hopefully I can find it in one of the health food stores in the area.
Thanks again!
