Last spring Pixie became totally freaked out by the thunder. She was fine the first 5 years of hr life. I heard about the thunder shirt but was a bit skeptical. I took Pixie to her vet because she would get so scared. She suggested the thunder shirt and said a lot of people had great results with it. So I bought one and it made a huge difference. The vet also gave me some calming drops. When it's real bad I use both. When it is a small storm I just use the thunder shirt. Now when Pixie hears thunder she runs over for me to put on her shirt. It takes about 10 minutes for it to start working. She will then just lay down and go to sleep. |
