I don't know if you've ever given Cooper Acepromazine, but when I gave Gracie Ace or valium when she was afraid of bad thunderstorms, it was more like giving her speed (something she never had). She became completely fearless and a complete terror. She was cute like that, but I don't think it was good for her. I decided not to give Ashley or Kiwi sedatives during a thunderstorm either. Even though they were very afraid, I started to think they were more afraid when they were medicated. They just didn't understand why they were feeling different.
