For Copper it is. If he normally would be a little shakey for instance before shaving his feet (which he hates) or the groomers, or if we are traveling a distance and I would like him to just relax and sleep most of the way. These are the kind of things I use it for. Maybe a ton of people coming over to our house. It just takes the edge off. I would compare it too giving a child chamomile tea, only he doesn't drink anything the smell it's self is the relaxant. It is also great for soothing babies
Now the DAP on the other hand was a huge huge difference for us but I know that it's effects vary from dog to dog. With the dap nothing at all bothered him, and I mean nothing. He was a comfy puppy and walked right up to anything and everything I really had to watch him more.
But the more grown up he gets the more he gains a confidence that is his own, I just use the above mentioned to get us through times that I know will be more on his nerves or to build confidence in new situations, I hope this helps.
