These have worked better than expected. My dog normally has to be sedated to go to the vet because when they take him away to do x-rays or any type of testing, he completely freaks out if he can’t see me, but the medicine that they give him often makes him a little off like he doesn’t seem to remember exactly where he is who he is and he’s around him but these streets, they don’t knock him out so far that it’s that level, but it does help him to relax and kind of just drift off to sleep in the day-to-day so that at night he’s not getting up and down up and down up and down and instead he’s just getting some sleep Read more
These beef-flavored chews have many beneficial ingredients (inositol for relaxation; taurine for relaxation and sleep; theanine-sleep; lemon balm leaf extract-calming; thiamin hydrochloride-anxiety) without strong side effects or negative problems. They're made in the US and are small and easy to eat. My dog hesitates a bit (which isn't unusual) but then eats them and they seem to help him relax (although he's a greyhound and the breed is generally pretty calm except when they see a small furry rabbit or squirrel running!). His former owner gave him prozac for separation anxiety and these gentle supplements are somewhat expensive but far preferable to prescription medications to avoid side effects and increased dosage requirements due to drug tolerance. The chews will be good to help him relax before thunderstorms or fireworks. Read more
I picked these up hoping for something I could give my dog during moments when he’s feeling anxious, like a more immediate calming option. At this price point, I expected them to work a bit more “instantly,” rather than something that needs to be given consistently over time. They’re not bad, and my dog had no problem eating them, but I didn’t notice the kind of quick, noticeable effect I was hoping for in those higher-stress moments. They seem more like something that would work as part of a regular routine rather than as-needed support. For the price, I just expected a bit more in terms of immediate results. Overall, not useless by any means, but I’m not sure I’d personally recommend them if you’re specifically looking for fast-acting calming support. Read more
My dog is very food‑motivated, so this product is perfect. I’m using it both for travel and around the house. Since starting it, I’ve noticed some improvement in his behavior. He often pants and breathes rapidly and shallowly, even when resting with no stimulation. He also struggles with anxiety in other ways, but inside the house his breathing has improved—less panting and less rapid, shallow breathing. It’s made in the U.S., which gives me confidence in the ingredients. The website also offers a 365‑day money‑back guarantee, which is amazing. Like many dogs, he still gets excited when the doorbell rings or when guests arrive, but for the issues of panting and shallow breathing, this has been helpful. I’m glad to know I can give him some comfort and relief. Overall, I’m very happy with the results and would recommend this product. Read more
I’ve tried so many calming potions for my dog and all of them have been subpar. Until now! My girl has gotten more anxious as she’s gotten older and nothing seems to take the edge off. However, these chews are not only a safe alternative to prescription meds or CBD, they seem to taste great! She honestly thinks she’s getting a treat! Dog is 45lbs and I give her 2 right before I leave for work or if I’m having friends over and she goes from an anxious, barky mess to a interested, playful, but, yes, calm dog. I don’t have to use the bark collar or growl at her for bad behavior. It doesn’t stop all barking because tHat is, after all, her job, but it does stop the excessive excitement and jumping. Would definitely recommend. Read more
what a fantastic item. The chews seem to be a great taste for my dog--and they really seem to work for calming my dog Archie. He really seems to look forward to getting these each evening and it doesn't seem to take long for him to settle down. I have noticed that he seems to bark less at strangers and he just lets them pass by. They have a very light smell that my dog seems to love and the ingredients seem perfect for the purpose.

I’m not comfortable recommending meds or foods because everyone, including pets, are different. But I will provide additional details. The dosage is one chew per 25 lbs body weight daily. There are 60 chews in the container. The product seems fresh with no off-putting odor. My dog had no negative reaction to the chews and ate them willingly. Read more
Got these to help our rambunctious GSD puppy sleep through the night (or at least for more than 4 hours), and in that regard, these aren't great. That being said, our old Shepsky seems to take to them better, sleeping through sirens and thunderstorms just fine now. They smell awful to my human nose, but the pups seem to love how they taste, so it makes for an effective treat. I just wish they had a more calming effect on our young pup for those days we don't have the time or energy to run him before bed. Still, as we learned from the Shepsky, it may just be a case-by-case basis for each dog, and at this price point compared to some other brands, it's worth a shot in my opinion. Read more
