another example could be for noise/crate/separation anxiety. Pair the shirt with a calming dog CD to drown out other noises or to make the dog feel like they are not alone.

Its hard to see them so anxious with whatever scares them. I tried many things to help Morgan but nothing worked. So i figured what the heck, i'll give it a try. Plus you have a 45 day guarantee, so if it doesn't help you can return it for a full refund.

That sounds like it might work. The problem is that since I'm in Mexico right now and my flight is at the end of this month, I won't get it in time. It took 2 months last time for me to get a book that was sent from the U.S. I'm going to try the Benadryl again...I just gave her another higher dose and I'm also going to try playing the sounds that you hear in an airplane in increasing volume over the next 3 weeks. A little desensitization. Hopefully that helps. I'll look into the thunder shirts while I'm in the U.S. Thanks again for your help.
