Fireworks and Your Dog
Did you know that fireworks and storms do not have to be a horror show for your dog? Vetri Science's Composure Pro http://tinyurl.com/mhqltm7 is a natural supplement that helps dogs cope with fearful events. It can be given daily and in times of great stress. Another natural product is the Thundershirt http://www.thundershirt.com/. This science based tool helps comfort the dog by applying constant, gentle pressure to the dogs body. Not every dog will respond to these types of treatments. True terror requires more "medical" intervention. Your veterinarian can prescribe anti-anxiety medications designed to be used short term: firework season- or longer term: storm season. Please know that just sitting back and doing nothing to help your pet through his fear is not an option. There are safe, effective treatments to help you!
