Does your pet get anxious during storms, car rides, or trips to the vet? 🐶🐱 You're not alone—and we're here to help! Anxiety in pets is common, but with the right approach, you can make them feel safe and supported. Here are our Top 5 Vet-Approved Calming Remedies to help soothe your furry companion:

Calming Supplements – Natural options like L-theanine, melatonin, or calming chews can ease anxiety without sedation. Ask us which formulas are safe and effective for your pet's size and health.

Thundershirts or Anxiety Wraps – These snug-fitting garments provide gentle, constant pressure that can calm your pet during storms or stressful events—like a comforting hug!

Pheromone Products – Diffusers, sprays, or collars that release pet-friendly calming pheromones (like Adaptil for dogs or Feliway for cats) can help reduce stress in new or noisy environments.

Create a Safe Space – Set up a quiet, cozy retreat for your pet with familiar bedding, toys, and low lighting. Playing soft music or white noise can help mask triggering sounds like thunder or fireworks.

Training & Desensitization – Gradually exposing your pet to anxiety triggers in a controlled, positive way can build resilience over time. We can guide you or refer you to a trusted behaviorist.

Need help deciding which remedy is best for your pet? Give us a call or stop by—we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers calm! 🐾
