I couldn't find the T-shirt thing in that link. Do you put it over their head?

I just posted a picture of the T-Shirt in the photo gallery under Copper. Like I said, it is not a miracle worker, but has seemed to calm him down a bit. The article said that having their torsos surrounded by fabric sometimes has an extremely calming effect on dogs. It was in the book, " Little Dogs: TRAINING your Pint-Sized companion by Deborah Wood". Article is in pink on page37.
