is this useful to calm animals during storms?

My dog trainer recommended that I use on our 35 pound pitbull mix that suffers from separation anxiety.

I would certainly try it and see how it goes. I have used it for all sorts of anxiety provoking things with my pets like even going to the vet.

I have a 25 Lb boston terrier with mild storm phobia. What dosage would I give him.
1722113
Yes, but be aware that the dose on the bottle is inadequate....use a dropperful for small dogs and upward for larger dogs. I work with rescued and traumatized dogs so use a lot....also Amazon sells it for way less than anyone else.....also thunder shirts are helpful.

Please check with your vet before giving it. Just because something is safe for human consumption doesn't mean it's safe for your pet.

I used to give it to my dog several years ago. She had storm anxiety too. She didn't fall asleep but she calmed down. I put two drops on her nose and she licked it off. She had no problems with it. She weighed about 40 pounds, a border collie/chow mix.

Walmart in the pet section carries a product I think is called Pet-Eze. I gave it to my chihuahua who used to shake when she heard thunder (even off in the distance). They were small ills I put in a piece of cheese. Worked like a charm given a half hr or hr before you know a storm is coming or need relief for your pet. Great for 4th of July too when pets freak.

Yes and you can rub some on the inside of the ears(not in the ears) but on the flap just where the fur ends. Alcohol is not a problem this way and no forcing your pet to take it. I put in water if storm is coming as he can anticipate. Works great!

I took the bottle to my vet and she said she would use it on her own dog. I ordered the pet version, but she said I was just paying for extra "glycerin" and she would be okay with using the human version for my small (14 to 22 lbs.) dogs.

I used it to calm my dog ​​from fireworks and it worked, this also helps your dog, (if help with the fireworks I guess to help with nails) I hope

I had a Westie who was terrified of storms. I live in Florida and the storms come up quickly and end quickly. I only put it on her for the time of the storm. I wouldn't leave it in her outside or in an un-air conditioned house.

Yes, this would work. It may or may not fatally injure the animal, but would move it along. If you don't want to kill the animals, maybe a softair gun would be good.

Sure. If it's a dog that has a neck and barks from time to time this item may work.

It might. The idea of the wrap is to relieve anxiety, and the test results are pretty impressive. It helps our dog who gets frightened by gunshots and thunder. Even though the source of the anxiety is different, the goal is the same. I'd give it a try.

It works best where there is wind. When it moves it makes noise and shines light which scares away birds.

Maybe, the energizer is not very powerful, check my web site at electric-fence and view garden kits, These energizers are more powerful and better suited for controlling dogs

I am no expert on this, but I bought two different First Alert dog barking control systems, neither of which were worth the money, nor did they work. My Beagles ignored both of them and since these devices are said to be above the hearing range of humans, who knows what effects a dog's audio senses? I think that animals have always known when a storm or danger is coming, so forget buying these First Alert barking control devices, they do not convince me that they really work, so I got my money back on them. I have also bought the air cannister bark control devices, none of them worked either. Save your money and avoid these products altogether.

It works at keeping my cats out. Also keeps me out when I forget to slide it out of the way. I would say yes for your dog although mine has never tried.

Perhaps. It has helped calm 2 of our 4 cats. Worth a try. Also look at Zylkene - that has helped one of our cats that is high strung around younger cats.

Yes, this works well for our problem. We had cats using our lawn and garden area and it was driving us nuts. The first time a dog encounters the noise it seems to bother them but then they ignore it. Cats are more put off by the sounds and we have not had one incident since setting this up

Potentially, but I'd definitely a) use it successfully before trying it on the beach, as in, repeatedly, to a good result, and b) use it to prevent the unwanted behavior before he actually gets going in it. It abruptly stops my dog from whatever he's doing and makes him come over to investigate the noise, every time. We've been using it for 2 weeks now, and he knows now that noise means bad behavior. Very effective.

I suppose you could use it for a dog's barking. I wanted it for when my dog is off leash and wanders too far. I usually use the vibration which is strong enough to get his attention. He then returns to me.

Yes. This base works well. However I always lay umbrella down when there is a storm.

The pet convincer is more for close use. If the dog is very sensitive to the noise it might work. You may want to consider a bull horn for that distance.

This is not an outdoor dog house. It is a temporary shelter for use under supervision at such things as a dog show. A hard wind will blow it away even with the stakes in. Rain will eventually soak through. I love it for use at agility trials both indoors and out, but I would not leave my dogs unattended in this. In hot weather I also put a fan inside as it can get stuffy.
