| ANyone know anything about "Calming" by PetNaturals or "Composure" by VetriScience? Both of these products are advertised in the latest issue of Best Friends magazine as supplements designed to calm your dog from anxiety about trips to the vet, travel generally, lightning & thunder, separation anxiety, etc. We have a 3 lb 4 yr old female who, as might be expected, is very protective and runs our house, but gets very upset if either I or my wife leaves, road trips, thunder, lightning, etc. Any suggestions or experience with either of these products or anything else that might be useful would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

| You can try them but you would probably be better off asking the vet for a prescription of something for the anxiety. You could also try a thunder shirt but if it is really bad anxiety that might not help.

| I've used Composure. I can't say it does much to be honest. I use it in conjunction with Trazodone for high stress events. I've given him Composure on his own if I know a thunderstorm is coming and I think it might help a little.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I've not had effective results w/ natural calming agents. I'd be more likely to try melatonin (3mg; NOT time release!), acepromazine, trazadone, valium, prozac, thundershirt, pheromone collar or plug-in unit...stuff like this.
