Attachment 411521We tried the American Kennel Club Pet Booster Seat ( front and back seat), Pet Carrier ( soft-sided) and Sherpa Metropolitan Tote - same results - " nuts mode" when we start moving. Attachment 411521I found it on Amazon and had to laugh - half of the " reviews" are from " people" using it to calm down! I did search on " Yorkie" and found two reviews that were very positive - ordered a bottle. Will let ya know how it goes! |
So, funny! *Maybe* I'll give it a try. If our pup is fussy, at least I'll be calm. Look forward to hearing if you get some results. HINT: Give with a little food and water. It gets into the system better that way. We give about 30 minutes before the stressful situation. We also will sometimes give 2 doses more closely spaced. BTW, we found trying to train stress with treats didn't work - she'd just as often act incorrectly to get the treat as act correctly. She also would express the stress by aggressively (overly eagerly) eating the treat and then demand more. That was the end of that!
