Pixie was so worked up I called her vet and she told me to come get some Xanax. It has helped a lot but she is wobbly on her feet. The vet said to give her 1/8 to 1/4 a tablet. I gave her closer to 1/4 because she was so stressed. I think next time I'll give her 1/8 and I can give it to her before she gets so worked up. Anyone else have experience with Xanax?
Hope it works as well for you. Now that I know what gets Cali so nervous I give it to her BEFORE she gets upset just like you are thinking of doing. Works great!
