From those that I know that use rescue remedy, they taught me to start a few days ahead to help them be more calm. So I've always started rescue remedy 2 days before travel.. More for Madison my yorkie. Lexie my maltese has always been a calm traveler. I have given Lexie rescue remedy before going to the vet ( 2 days before) it was a noticable difference in how she was acting. Its nice to have her calm vs. drugged. if that makes any sense.
My dog weighs just over 5 lbs and I do the 4 drops in her water and a drop or 2 on her tongue the night before and the morning of. From what others that swear by Rescue Remedy say you cant give to much. Maybe we'll hear what others have to say.
