So is Xanax something that can be used every now and then? Like, it's not something that has to be taken every day, right, to be effective? (I wouldn't be comfortable with that). If I know that a storm is coming, I would probably just give him a small dose.

Yep, I only give it now and then when she needs it. It kicks in fully in a out 20 to 30 minutes.

I have only found one place where they carry the liquid(Walgreens) - you will have to call around and then your vet can write you a rx. Almost any pharmacy can get it for you but it may take them a day or two.

I draw it up in a insulin (small) syringe then draw up a little bit of honey (so it tastes good) and just squirt it in from the side between her teeth. She does not seem to mind it. Course she gets a little treat after she takes it!

I only use it a couple days a week when I know I will be on the highway with big trucks, and then only use it twice a day then.
