Calming for Dogs, 30 Chews - Naturally Sourced Stress and Anxiety Calming Ingredients for Behavior Support - Vet Recommended

A friend of mine adopted a cat about a year or so ago. This poor kitty looked to have come from a pretty dire situation. It was a purebred cat that had obviously been used as part of a breeding mill. She was extremely frightened of nearly everyone and everything. She didn't even know how to play with toys and would only chase her tail, a sign that she spent much of her time cooped up in a cage. (She now knows how to play with toys!) My friend, who has had a lot of experience with various cats, wasn't even initially able to pet her. Over time she's opened up and can be pet, but even now you have to be careful with how you pet her or she will freak out. Picking her up isn't even an option, which makes any sort of medical or preventative care truly difficult. Now while my friend has been helping this beautiful cat adapt to a normal, loving household, the cat still has issues with stress and anxiety. She will often over-groom, leading to scabs and bald patches in her coat. Fleas have contributed to this some, but the main issue with her has been and still is anxiety and stress. We have some calming diffusers and those have helped, but more was needed. I got these just under a week ago and they've made a marked difference, particularly when paired with the Bayer II flea treatment. There's a marked improvement in her coat and demeanor, plus she's easier to approach. She doesn't really even react as much when you pass by her, something that's really nice as cats should be able to fully relax in their homes. I can't vouch for the taste myself, obviously, but I can say that the cat absolutely loves them. My friend has another cat that doesn't need these, but also loves how they taste so he has to be kept away or he'll try to figure out ways to steal her morning treat - not that she gives up these treats willingly! It's already become a daily morning ritual that she looks forward to. I'm absolutely buying more of these, particularly since they're so reasonably priced! I purchased some pricier ones at PetSmart that neither cat would even touch (CatMX), so it's nice that I can get good, helpful treats at a reasonable price!

These are great for calming my anxious little dogs on days that I may be gone longer or if storms are in the area. I always keep them on hand.

I gave these 4 stars because they REALLY WORK, I took a star off because they are deceiving... BEWARE: READ MY STORY: I gave ONE of these to my 55 pound doberman mix who is TOTALLY CRAZY in the afternoon the day they arrived with no expectations because nothing calms her down, ever. Nothing happened. The next day, again in the afternoon, I gave her ONE again. An hour later she was drooling uncontrollably, knocking her head into walls and furniture while walking in the house, walking like she was drunk, her tongue was hanging out of the side of her mouth, she would not eat or drink water and was visibly disoriented and confused and distressed. My husband and I spent the entire rest of the day taking turns sitting with her on a blanket outside trying to put water in her mouth and just watching her breathe and sleep to make sure she was "ok". And yes, we considered taking her to an emergency vet. We didn't do that because we know our dog really well, we've seen her on the verge of death sick, injured, terrified, we know her whole spectrum from great to terrible. And we watched her every second until after midnight when she started to come out of the outrageously intense "drugged" state she was in. The next morning she was back to normal. So... how should I end this review? These things worked on a dog who has been given A LOT of natural remedies for fear, anxiety, aggression, reactivity, etc. and showed absolutely no sign of change from any of them. That means that there is an ingredient or combination of ingredients in these things that is REALLY EFFECTIVE. And she is totally fine, it was apparently just too much for her system. It could be that they become more effective if given daily seeing as there was no effect the first day and the second day with just TWO treats in her system she acted like she was on heroin for about 7 hours. I don't think there is anything bad about these, in fact, to be honest, I'm relieved we actually found something that works on her and no, I didn't throw them out, but no, I haven't given her any since that day. They are sitting in her treat drawer, wrapped up tight in a ziplock bag, way in the back, ha! I will keep them on hand for emergency situations. I have also considered breaking off a TINY piece and giving it to her and then watching her closely as an experiment. Anyway that's my story, sorry it was so long, but I know there are a lot of dog moms (and dads) out there who might not have to go through the scary situation I did if they read this first. I'm not saying don't get these, but I am saying be careful with the dosage!! Also I checked out the company and they seem great. Good luck!

Cats don’t like it

It work reasonably well to calm my dog during thunderstorms, but you have to spend about 30 to 45 mins initially with your dog to reinforce his confidence

packaging and quality is very good and used by my pet they loved it so much.

It says that all cats will love it but this doesn't happen with my cats
